My review of Bach's Matthew Passion from King's College Cambridge with Rogers Covey Crump at the Evangelist is here.
Intelligently
sung and nicely modulated, you can put the disc on and enjoy the moment
but these moments just do not build up into anything greater.
And my review Fevin's Requiem, a reconstruction of the Requiem mass for Anne of Brittanny, is here
Both reviews on MusicWeb International.
Beautifully
illuminates sacred Breton music of the period.
