My review of Cirque a disc of French song with works by Sauget, Poulenc, Auric and Milhaud sung by Celini Ricci is here.
Admirable programme, intelligently put together and including some lesser-known works but Ricci’s performance is simply unsatisfactory.
And my review of a disc of organ and choral music from Ely Cathedral is here.
A slightly awkward mix but highly attractive and intelligently and finely performed.
