Hyperion’s record of the month for February presents a Mozartian showcase for the extraordinary talents of Carolyn Sampson, and is also something of a rarity, the repertoire all dating the composer’s time in Salzburg. Two Regina caeli settings (for soprano, chorus and big orchestra), written whilst Mozart was still only in his mid-teens, are extremely fine—but not so often heard and even less often recorded. This is superb music: triumphant outer movements and heartfelt, more introspective inner sections which find Mozart at his most ardent.Exsultate, iubilate has, of course, been performed and recorded widely, but usually in the ‘Milan‘ version; here we record the rarely heard ‘Salzburg‘ version, which has a different orchestration (delicate flutes instead of oboes giving a very different colour) and different words. It ends, of course, with the wildly famous, virtuosic ‘Alleluia‘.These three works make substantial pillars for the disc. But there is much more! A series of shorter jewels, including three of the greatest movements for solo soprano taken from larger sacred works: the hugely famous ‘Laudate Dominum‘ from the Vesperae solennes de Confessore (which could be by Verdi, with its amazing soft chorus entry part of the way through), the utterly ravishing ‘Agnus Dei‘ from the ‘Coronation‘ Mass, and a cheerful and less often heard ‘Laudate Dominum’ from the Vesperae solennes de Domenica with a cheery organ solo duetting with the voice.Finally we have a very rarely heard duet, Sub tuum praesidium, where, thanks to the wonders of technology, Carolyn duets with herself—surely no two sopranos have ever duetted more perfectly, and it is a glorious piece of writing.Reviewing the concert prior to the recording sessions for this disc, Geoffrey Norris wrote in The Daily Telegraph that The King’s Consort and Robert King displayed "an unerring understanding of Mozart’s sublime thrills" and that ‘Carolyn Sampson produced pure streams of coloratura‘.

Chandos signed Karen Geoghegan as an exclusive artist in 2007 following her wonderful performances on the BBC TV‘The Classical Star’ programme. This is her fourth recording with the label, following her CD of works by Hummel,Weber, Berwald, Jacobi, Elgar and Gershwin, her CD of French music for bassoon and piano, and her contribution, in theSuite-Concertino in F major, to Noseda’s Wolf-Ferrari CD. All of these received much acclaim, and the expressivematurity and sensitivity of her playing have quickly cemented her status as a rising star: ‘Name five internationally famous bassoon soloists. Archie Camden, Gwydion Brooke and, er, that’s it. Except I think weshall soon be adding the name of Karen Geoghegan to the roll call…’GramophoneSince graduating from the Royal Academy of Music this year, Karen Geoghegan has been playing first bassoon with theesteemed BBC Philharmonic, Philharmonia Orchestra, and Ulster Orchestra with which she is currently on trial. She madeher BBC Proms debut in 2009, performing Mozart’s Bassoon Concerto with the BBC Philharmonic under GianandreaNoseda. The same strong partnership is performing again on this new release, with Mozart’s Concerto featuringprominently. Its second movement in particular is stunning as it unfolds in an almost operatic manner as a soulful aria-likeline for the bassoon against the gently rhythmic accompaniment of the orchestra, the strings muted throughout.Whereas Mozart’s work is widely recognised as the veritable cornerstone of the bassoon repertoire, the compositions byCrusell and Kreutzer are little-heard but distinguished vehicles for the instrument. Rossini’s Bassoon Concerto wascompletely unknown until relatively recently. It was only in the early 1990s that it came to light among a nineteenthcenturycollection of manuscripts that had been archived at the library in Ostiglia, near Mantua. Vigorous and exhilarating,but with a dreamy and pensive second movement, this Concerto was a real find. In the third movement, Rossini puts thebassoon through some hair-raising paces across the whole range of its available register, before finally providing asatisfyingly high-spirited ending to an intriguing work.
