Francis Poulenc : Choral Works

Harry Christophers

Sacred Vocal Music - Released January 27, 2017 | The Sixteen Productions Ltd.

Hi-Res Distinctions Diapason d'or
The sacred music of Francis Poulenc would seem somewhat off the regular path of the popular British choir The Sixteen, but in a recording of the cantata Figure humaine and again with the present selection of sacred choral works, they show themselves to be sensitive and skillful Poulenc interpreters. On one hand this isn't a surprise: Poulenc drew on the Renaissance repertoire that is The Sixteen's bread and butter. They can deliver the clean lines and the vocal homogeneity that the basic style demands. But this is not neo-Renaissance music; it has a numinous, radiant quality and communicates the feeling that it was directly shaped by Poulenc's own experiences. This is where The Sixteen excel: they convey a sense of commitment to the music, and their readings are unique. Sample the "O magnum mysterium." There are dozens of recordings of this piece, beloved by school choirs in several countries, but Sixteen director Harry Christophers here shapes a flowing reading that's faster than usual and uniquely suits the transcendent quality of the text. The Mass in G is perfectly controlled, but somehow radiant. Christophers' engineering staff delivers superior results in London's Church of St. Alban the Martyr, and the package as a whole offers uniquely satisfying results even for those who already have plenty of Poulenc, or plenty of The Sixteen. © TiVo

Noëls baroques à Versailles (Collection "L'âge d'or de l'orgue français", No. 3)

Gaétan Jarry

Classical - Released November 8, 2019 | Château de Versailles Spectacles

Hi-Res Booklet
A Noel is a French Christmas carol, and the ones here are sung by Les Pages du CMBV (Centre Musique Baroque de Versailles), a children's choir. Their voices do not soar, but they are not the stars of the show. Instead, the album is part of a series called L'age d'or de l'orgue français, and the main attraction is organist Gaétan Jarry, and even more so, the 1710 organ at the Versailles chapel. It's a marvelous instrument, clear in all registers, lively, and bracing. The composer-organists here are largely unknown today, at least outside France, but hearing these works, the listener may understand why crowd control police had to show up for performance by the likes of Claude Balbastre (1724-1799). Jarry performs the Noels with the choir singing verses in alternation with the organ. He admits there's no particular precedent for doing it this way, and indeed the choir tends to interrupt the organist's momentum a bit. However, the organ variations themselves are fascinating, and the music is both enjoyable in its pleasant pastoral sounds and instructive as to the missing links between the French Baroque organ school and the virtuoso French styles of the 19th century. Clear, rich sound is a bonus on this offbeat French holiday selection. © TiVo
