This generously compiled CD brings together two great sopranos – Hildegard Behrens and Elly Ameling – in ravishing French music for the voice and orchestra. The entire Ameling/de Waart recording (Ravel, Duparc, Debussy) is coupled with the Berlioz cycle, the former making a welcome return to the catalogue after a long absence and showcasing the Dutch soprano in her absolute prime, vocally and interpretatively.
‘Classic, competitive and eminently, radiantly desirable … so much splendour at such a splendid price’ Fanfare
‘Asie seldom has sounded more picturesque or fantastic, and Ameling rides its big climax with joyous abandon … One of [La demoiselle élue’s] best peformances on disc … [Ameling] was, and remains, fabulous’ ClassicsToday
