    5 out of 5 stars French Songs Transcribed for Cello; Result is Magical.......2000-08-14

    Occasionally a CD appears that is pure magic. This is one of them. Mischa Maisky and Daria Hovora form an ideal team: each performs on an exquisite instrument, and the recording engineer has captured everything, balance and all. In my opinion, transcribing French songs from voice to cello is a "natural"--the cello, so much like the human voice, captures the intimacy and atmosphere beautifully.

    Both performers are natural story tellers, and Maisky, with an almost uniquely seductive vibrato, unhurriedly describes the French romantic soul. If a phrase is to be caressed, he caresses it. It if needs to soar, he gives it exactly what it needs. And the pianissimos! His tone sometimes just seems to come out of nowhere, and the endings often promise never to end.

    Being a cellist myself, I have to say that this masterpiece both inspires and teaches. It has been said that great art leaves one changed. This CD does that, and it deserves a place in every classical music collection.

    Knowing many of these recordings from the vinyl issue, I rejoice in being able to get them re-mastered. Bernac was not only Poulenc's great interpreter, but a definitive interpreter of other French art songs (and Souzay's teacher).

    5 out of 5 stars Wonderful interpretation.......2005-07-01

    This is a must CD for any collection. It contains songs rarely recorded, and on this CD the pure singing of Rosamund Illing is a real joy. It is rare also to hear an accompanist of the quality of McSkimming. The quality of the French, the phrasing and purity of Illing's voice brings out the beauty of these songs.

    3 out of 5 stars French art songs.......2004-12-12

    The songs of Henri Duparc remain treasures of the singer's repertory today. Duparc's entire high reputation as a composer rests on these dozen or so masterpieces--after suffering an emotional crisis in his thirties he never composed again for the rest of a long life, and destroyed many previously written works as well. With their melodic eloquence, sensitivity to text and virtuoso pianistic textures, these mélodies repay not only performers but also dedicated listeners--"Chanson triste," "L'invitation au voyage" and "La vie anterieure" are particular favorites of connoisseurs of French art song.

    On the evidence of this one recording, Rosamund Illing is a singer rather in the Elly Ameling mold, with a high, clear soprano that rides the frequently angular and taxing phrases of these songs with ease. However, Illing lacks Ameling's singular ability to project words with meaning in any language, nor is she technically as finished a singer--the integrity of the legato line is frequently sacrificed to pronounciation. Without compensating insights her relative monotony of vocal color soon becomes a liability. David McSkimming's beautiful playing and the inclusion of some vocal gems by Poulenc are not quite enough to overcome these drawbacks. As an introduction to Duparc's genius, this recording will do; but it does not begin to uncover all that there is in this marvelous music.
