Thanks to the Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles, which regularly publishes the more obscure gems of French music, we can enjoy these religious works of Pierre de Bouteiller. The present recording includes, in addition to the Missa pro defunctis, Pierre Bouteiller’s Motets for voice, two bass viols, and continuo, confirming the fact that viols were indeed happily coupled with the human voice in French repertoire.

Jarvi and the Philharmonia Orchestra are thoroughly ay home in these scores, and the Chandos recording is characteristically spectacular. This is well worth exploring. . 3 Stars, Penguin Guide
Die Musik des "Mozart der Champs-Elysees", wie Rossini den Wahl-Pariser Jacques Offenbach einst anerkennend nannte, ist in ihrer Wirkung auf den Hörer so anregend und selig machend wie ein fein perlender Champagner. Orchesterzauberer Neeme Järvi lässt hier zusammen mit dem Orchestre de la Suisse Romande die spritzigen Ouvertüren und Ballettkompositionen Offenbachs zu bunten musikalischen Knallbonbons werden, die einfach nur unwiderstehlich sind. Unwillkürlich fragt man sich: Warum gibt es eigentlich nicht mehr von diesem Komponisten zu hören? Wie immer bei Chandos kommen durch die hervorragende Aufnahmequalität auch Audiophile voll auf ihre Kosten.

Renowned for their Handel interpretations, Harry Christophers and his award-winning choir, The Sixteen, add to their glittering catalogue of Handel discs with this new recording of Saul. In his biblical oratorio, Saul, Handel wrote an epic work of great and noble drama and of thrilling musical inventiveness. Saul represents Handel’s first proper foray into oratorio and it is a masterpiece full of great and magical moments. It is bursting with exceptional music, extraordinary orchestration (replete with trombones, deep-sounding drum and perky carillon), extended choruses both profound and ebullient, symphonies, concerto movements for organ, recitatives which explore the varying moods of the characters, and the most stunning arias. In Saul Handel gifted soloists with roles of vivid characterisation and the artists on this disc are some of the finest Handelian interpreters of today including Christopher Purves - a baritone whose talent for dramatic realisation is matched by superb musical craftsmanship - and Sarah Connolly - whose intensely radiant performance of David on this CD confirms her status as one of our most sought-after Handel performers. Both Christopher and Sarah sang with The Sixteen at the start of their careers, and Sarah released her first solo album Heroes and Heroines on CORO, and so it is with great pride that we welcome them back for this recording. Robert Murray, Elizabeth Atherton and Joélle Harvey along with Sixteen regulars, Mark Dobell, Jeremy Budd and Stuart Young, complete the stellar line-up of soloists on this new recording.
