Down by the Salley Gardens


Ce panorama de la mélodie anglaise moderne nous transporte de l’esthétique édouardienne de Quilter ou du premier Vaughan Williams à l’expressivité intense d’un Howells ou d’un Finzi. Les réalisations purcelliennes de Britten et de Tippett, pour leur part, nous montrent deux grands compositeurs du XXe siècle en prise directe avec leur patrimoine musical. Après un disque Haendel plébiscité, la maîtrise aussi bien vocale que verbale de Bejun Mehta fait merveille au cœur de cette diversité.

This programme offers a vivid and varied cross-section of English song, ranging from the Edwardian aesthetic of Quilter and early Vaughan Williams to the intensely expressive style of Howells and Finzi. The Purcell realisations by Britten and Tippett, meanwhile, are products of two great 20th-century composers engaging with their musical heritage. In all these different styles, Bejun Mehta shows the same verbal and vocal mastery that won such acclaim for his debut Handel recital on harmonia mundi.

Dieses außergewöhnliche Programm entführt uns in die Welt der englischen Liedkunst – von der edwardianischen Ästhetik eines Quilter oder frühen Vaughan Williams bis zum hochexpressiven Stil von Howells oder Finzi. Und die Purcell-Bearbeitungen von Britten und Tippett präsentieren sich als die fruchtbare Auseinandersetzung zweier großer Komponisten des 20. Jahrhunderts mit ihrem musikalischen Erbe. Nach seiner begeistert aufgenommenen Händel-CD beweist uns Bejun Mehta auch mit diesem so unterschiedlichen Repertoire erneut seine sprachliche und sängerische Meisterschaft.
