More French Baroque Strings and other,
By
This review is from: Véronique Gens ~ Tragédiennes 2 (From Gluck to Berlioz) (Audio CD)
Where Tragediennes (vol.1) was a powerful collection of typical French baroque vocal music, this piece is a little bit more romantically orientated. It doesn't have the typical harpsichord sound in every piece, but indeed the faster-than-you-can-keep-up-with-string music. Gens' interpretation is nicely done. Pronouncement very well to be understood, something that especially French people tend to forget. Gens' voice is at her best like usual. Her full resonans relaxes me every time and gives me energy when I need to perform myself in my vocal studies. You love her voice, you love her energetic performance, buy it. You don't like baroque? Maybe you should try this before you buy vol.1, even Rameau's Palatin's you'll like (great copper).

A tremendous selection of arias, wonderfully interpreted and stunningly sung. Excellent orchestration too. A real gem of a C.D. I recomend it highly.

Magic!,
By seyr - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Véronique Gens ~ Tragédiennes 2 (From Gluck to Berlioz) (Audio CD)
Impressive recording!! The duet Gens/Rousset manages to make even better than during their previous colaboration (Tragédiennes vol. 1). Véronique Gens is in full ownership of her capacities and C. Rousset's orchestra never sounded so good, his Berlioz and Cherubini's are amazing!! No doubt one of the year's best disc!!

Not enough material for a second volume,
By Constantin Declercq "Constantin Declercq" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Véronique Gens ~ Tragédiennes 2 (From Gluck to Berlioz) (Audio CD)
Almost 20 minutes of orchestral interludes is too much for a disc of arias (1/3 of the total timing).
----- Les airs sont judicieusement choisis et ils sont interprétés avec élégance et expressivité. Le seul défaut -mais il est de taille quand il s'agit d'un disque de récitals- est qu'il y a une vingtaine de minutes d'interludes orchestraux, ce qui fait presque un tiers de la durée totale du disque. N'y avait-il pas assez d'airs pour faire un deuxième volume sufffisamment consistant ? |
