It's all about the voice
And what voices! Cecilia Bartoli with Vivaldi's desperate aria Gelido in ogni vena, the Songbird of Wassoulou, Oumou Sangar茅, and the lustrous ensemble work of Armonico Consort.
And what voices! Cecilia Bartoli with Vivaldi's desperate - and icily familiar - aria Gelido in ogni vena, the Songbird of Wassoulou, Oumou Sangar茅, and the lustrous ensemble work of Armonico Consort in Versa est in luctum by Tomas Luis de Victoria. There's Beethoven's impish Sonata No 6 too, and the internal logic of Symphony No 6 by Sibelius. And there's the massed string voices of Gorecki's third Piece in Old Style, and the conversational Pastorale for wind by Amy Beach.
