CPO presents unknown Cherubini cantatas. Cherubini never fails to give the sorrow, rage and pain of his subjects a truly personal dimension.
"These four austerely impressive cantatas are rare and valuable repertoire, powerfully sung...This disc could make converts." (BBC Music)
"Maïlys de Villoutrey's limpid singing conveys Clytemnestra's softer side serenely...and in the cantata's climax characterises her as a vulnerable victim of the Gods; the Kolner Akademie adroitly juggle the contrasting textures and moods of Cherubini's score." (Gramophone)
