This beautiful and engaging French Baroque opera brings to life the Biblical story of a friendship which surmounts political, religious and even family differences. David and Jonathan: two friends closer than brothers, forced onto opposite sides of a cruel civil war which will claim the life of one of them. Out of this ancient yet utterly contemporary story of love and loyalty divided, comes an opera of devastating beauty, graced with the elegance and expressive genius of the French Baroque. Charpentier’s 17th-century masterpiece leaps off the page and into the heart in this brilliant recording by Australia’s most exciting opera company, Pinchgut Opera.David and Jonathan delights with the beauty and freshness of the singing, and the subtle yet vibrant colours of the orchestral sound, played on the type of instruments for which the music was written. The intimacy and tenderness of David and Jonathan’s friendship echoes in the exquisite interplay between their voices: the silver purity of Australian soprano Sara Macliver, and the warm clarity of Swedish tenor Anders J. Dahlin, one of the world’s finest haute-contres, so perfectly expressing David’s blend of heroism and vulnerability. Dahlin has worked widely in Europe with conductors such as Chrisophe Rousset, John Eliot Gardiner, Hervé Niquet, William Christie and Frans Brüggen. Dahlin has received wide acclaim as The Evangelist in J. S Bach’s St. Matthew’s Passion throughout Europe, as well as for his interpretation of Britten’s Serenade for tenor, horn and stringsCharpentier’s opera is also rich in bass roles. Dean Robinson traces King Saul’s descent into madness with dramatic poignancy, and Simon Lobelson’s Joabel embodies the ambition and cunning of the treacherous Israelite captain. Richard Anderson, well known from his many appearances for Opera Australia, brings a sense of true integrity to the role of Achis, the Philistine general. And David Parkin, sings the role of Samuel’s Ghost with menacing solemnity.Recorded live in the magnificent acoustic of City Recital Hall in Sydney, David and Jonathan is a superb musical experience and an essential addition to any opera library.

What did the life of nuns behind medieval convent walls look like? In Veiled Desires, ensemble Peregrina and Agnieszka Budzińska-Bennett consider various aspects of this monastic life that was isolated from worldly pleasures. With clear voices, they sing the praise of virginity and of its curse (in the specific form of the nun’s lament), the experience of communal living, and the impressive laments for a deceased sister. Yet alongside these rather chaste songs, ensemble Peregrina has likewise selected satirical and amusing songs that tell of the nuns’ rebelliousness – from an erotic dialogue between a nun and a monk up to an abbess entangled in a love affair. A tongue-in-cheek program with flawless singing from the context of the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, accompanied by Baptiste Romain (vielle) and Marc Lewon (lute, gusli). Entertainment at its best!
