My review of The Mikado from Australian opera is here.
Dynamic
and quite vivid. Annoying or characterful, it depends on your point
of view.
And my review of Monteverdi's Missa in Illo Tempore recorded in Mantua, is here. Both reviews are on MusicWeb-International.com.
Strong,
well shaped performances, naturally placed and performed by an interesting
ensemble.
