MARBECKS COLLECTABLE: Berlioz: Harold In Italy / Les Nuits d'ete Anne Sofie von Otter (mezzo) Antoine Tamestit (viola) / Les Musiciens du Louvre, Marc Minkowski [ Naive Classique / CD - released 20/Oct/2011 ] "Minkowski gives an energetic, crisp, emphatic reading. The sinewy sound of the Louvre players' period instruments, though, lends it a rougher, almost folkier texture, against which the viola's individual voice stands out more sharply than usual."... |
