Soprano Lucy Crowe joins The English Concert led by Harry Bicket in this dazzling programme of Handel arias and cantatas dating from his sojourn in Italy, where he was affectionately dubbed “the dear Saxon”.
“Her dramatic and emotional powers ... are remarkable. In comedy or tragedy she reaches the heart of the music.” – The Times of London (UK)
“One of the most accomplished Handel singers around, the voice a thing of great beauty, freshness and purity, the technique so secure that the most difficult coloratura gymnastics were like child’s play.” – The Chicago Tribune (concert review)


Cet éblouissant programme d’arias et cantates de Haendel date de son séjour en Italie, où il fut affectueusement surnommé “le cher Saxon”.
Lucy Crow a été plébiscitée pour “ses facultés dramatiques et émotionnelles ... remarquables. Que ce soit dans la comédie ou la tragédie, elle atteint le cœur de la musique.” – The Times of London (UK)
“L’une des chanteuses haendéliennes les plus accomplies, à la voix d’une grande beauté, fraîche et pure, à la technique si assurée qu’elle se joue des acrobaties coloratura les plus complexes.” – The Chicago Tribune


Für ihr erstes Soloalbum mit The English Concert unter Harry Bicket wählte die Sopranistin Lucy Crowe ein hinreißendes Programm mit Arien und Kantaten, die Händel während seines Aufenthalts in Italien geschrieben hatte – dort, wo man ihn auch schwärmerisch den „lieben Sachsen“ nannte.
„Ihre dramatische und emotionale Kraft ist außergewöhnlich. In komischen wie in tragischen Rollen trifft sie immer den Kern der Musik.“ The Times of London
„Eine der vollendetsten Händel-Sängerinnen, eine Stimme von großer Schönheit, Frische und Reinheit, technisch so sicher, dass die schwierigste Koloratur-Akrobatik wie ein Kinderspiel wirkt.“ The Chicago Tribune (Konzertkritik)
