Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
After scores of successful performances and recordings of music by Schumann and Britten among others, Ian Bostridge has made his first major foray out of the classical repertory. The Noël Coward Songbook sees the tenor exploring 19 songs by the inimitable composer, playwright and actor.
After scores of successful performances and recordings of music by Schumann and Britten among others, Ian Bostridge has made his first major foray out of the classical repertory. The Noël Coward Songbook sees the tenor exploring 19 songs by the inimitable composer, playwright and actor.
Accompanied throughout by Jeffrey Tate's exquisite piano playing, Bostridge proves to be the ideal singer to take these witty songs into the 21st century. The strengths of his voice all combine to bring each gem to life, including crystal-clear diction (the tongue-twisting "Mad Dogs and Englishmen") and a radiance which animates even the simplest song (try "If you could only come with me"). But that isn't to say he sings each Coward number as if it were a Schubert Lied: in "Twentieth Century Blues" he adapts a swooning style and even drops the middle "t" in "twentieth".
Bostridge is joined on several tracks by soprano Sophie Daneman. It's a successful partnership, especially in their touching rendition of "I'll see you again".
The proof of this particular pudding will be in Bostridge pulling off these songs in the concert hall. Rumour has it he can. --Rebecca Agnew
