Old bottles and good wines

You can not write that capture left an indelible trace in the extensive discography of Sir Henry PURCELL remarkable, even if it was celebrated in its time for its originality and its musical qualities.
It is true that the bottles are old: strong 1973 and 1976 recordings remastered in 2011..et well then the excellent performers, although they knew their hours of glory, did not stay in our memories inoxydablement "Pro Cantione Antiqua "and" Collegium Aureum "under the guidance of Mark Brown.
Yet the voices are beautiful and the "Collegium Aureum" provides musical quality foundation that does not denote with contemporary orchestral approaches PURCELL.
The amateur will find works finally bit interpreters and take some pleasure in listening to the joyful alternation of compositions for the Court and trussed tunes for carnal pleasures taverns and hovels.
The pleasure of opposites.
The opposite of displeasure.
A CD that does not déparera collection enthusiasts PURCELL ... but also more!
Happy listening.
