Ombra Compagna - Mozart Concert Arias RecommendedLisette Oropesa (soprano)
Il Pomo d'Oro, Antonello Manacorda
Oropesa delivers the dizzying roulades and explosed high staccatos of the twelve-year-old Mozart's 'A Berenice' with absolute ease, and an exuberance which matches the composer’s own…There’s... — More…

Mahler: Das Lied von der Erde
RecommendedSarah Connolly (mezzo-soprano), Robert Dean Smith (tenor)
Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra, Vladimir Jurowski
[Connolly] makes the perfect case for pulling the lustrous stops out at each death-transcending release in the ‘Farewell’; Mahler may mark the dynamics at a lower level, but the emotion is irresistible.... — More…

Mahler: Song Cycles
RecommendedAlice Coote (mezzo-soprano)
Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra, Marc Albrecht

Stravinsky: Perséphone
RecommendedAndrew Staples & Pauline Cheviller
Finnish National Opera, Esa-Pekka Salonen

RecommendedLise Davidsen (Agathe), Andreas Schager (Max), Sofia Fomina (Ännchen), Alan Held (Kaspar), Markus Eiche (Ottokar), Franz-Josef Selig (Eremit)
Frankfurt Radio Symphony, MDR Leipzig Radio Choir, Marek Janowski
It is carefully done, and due attention is paid to Weber’s inventive score, but the result is frankly pedestrian…There’s good singing here, led by Lise Davidsen’s sweet-toned Agathe, who sings... — More…
