Stephen Layton’s first disc of Lukaszewski’s choral works (with The Choir of Trinity College, Cambridge) was widely praised by listeners entranced by the composer’s unique yet accessible musical language. For this new release Layton and Polyphony, together with the Britten Sinfonia and a team of world-class soloists, have taken on a major work which is destined to become a modern classic in the vein of Tavener’s The Veil of the Temple or Pärt’s St John Passion. Via Crucis is a dramatization of the Stations of the Cross, a musical reading of this most solemn journey that evolves through its 55-minutes in an arc of culminatory ritual power.Lukaszewski's reputation is growing rapidly, and rightly so … Here, Christ's victory over death enables Lukaszewski to end on a triumphant coda that carries a primal power recalling Orff's Carmina Burana and Penderecki's St Luke Passion … All the performers evince an emotional commitment to the content as well as to accurate technical realisation of the music. The purity of sound achieved by Polyphony's sopranos and countertenor Iestyn Davies is notable, so too is Roger Allam's sonorous narration' (BBC Music Magazine)."A composer with a profound understanding of the technical and emotional range of the human voice … The shining writing for the countertenor Evangelist (performed by the outstanding Iestyn Davies) … and the Resurrectional blaze of the final 'Christus vincit'. This string of moments, by turns bright and oppressively dark, dramatic and reflective, receives a performance of the very deepest conviction by Polyphony and the Britten Sinfonia under Stephen Layton, and the recorded sound is wonderful" - (Gramophone).

„Sensational countertenor Franco Fagioli. ... his sound is sweet yet full, and his suave, macho manner makes believable Jason's devastating effect on women. We are living in a new golden age of countertenor singing, and Fagioli is one reason why.“ This is the Chicago Tribune’s description of the debut in spring, 2010 of Franco Fagioli, the countertenor from Argentina.Born in 1981 in San Miguel de Tucumán, Fagioli first began studying piano at the music institute in his home town and then went on to study voice at the Academy of Art of the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aries. He soon decided to pursue a career as a countertenor. Winning first prize at the renowned Bertelsmann “New Voices” competition in 2003 marked the beginning of his international career. On the CD “Canzone e Cantate” Franco Fagioli shows the extraordinarily broad spectrum of his expressive possibilities, ranging from a warm cantabile soprano via heart-rending, sobbing passages to acrobatic coloratura. He is accompanied by Luca Pianca, Marco Frezzato and Jörg Halubek, who are also heard in solo roles in the instrumental sections.
