Purcell: Dido and Aeneas
Ann Murray (Dido), Anton Scharinger (Aeneas), Trudeliese Schmidt (Sorceress)
Rachel Yakar (Belinda)
Concentus Musicus Wien, Nikolaus Harnoncourt
The timbre and weight of Ann Murray's voice drag down Dido's vocal line. While neatly shaping the phrases of the chorus, Harnoncourt reins in neither its volume nor the soloists' rubatos.
