Summary
Rameau: Regne Amour - Carolyn Sampson, Ex Cathedra (Hyperion CDA67447) Among the many attractions of Ex Cathedra, the Midlands- based chamber choir which seems perennially youthful despite its decades of existence, have been in recent years the contributions of soprano Carolyn Sampson. Her vibrant stage presence combines with enviable technical dexterity and beautifully shaded tones to impart vigour and shape to whatever music is under consideration.
Now this jewel of a release from Hyperion allows her to shine in material which perhaps suits Sampson's qualities best of all. The vivid music of Jean-Philippe Rameau, encompassing both brilliance and tenderness, brings all Sampson's gifts into play in this enchanting sequence of 'love songs from the operas' as the pretty cover describes it.See the full content of this document
