Elizabeth Dobbin (soprano) Le Jardin Secret Continuing its work with young artists, CORO has the pleasure of announcing Musique Pour Mazarin! the
debut recording by Le Jardin Secret, winners of both the first prize and audience prize at the Early Music
Network Young Artists Competition 2007.
This talented young ensemble consisting of soprano, harpsichord, theorbo, viola da gamba and baroque cello,
present a delightfully varied programme featuring a diverse mixture of French and Italian music that would have
been heard at the court of the flamboyant Cardinal Jules Mazarin.
The juxtaposition of French and Italian works on this disc shows clearly the rich selection of music heard at
Mazarin’s court in the late 1600s. They demonstrating the stark contrast between the French and Italian styles of
the period with the added ingredient of political and cultural rivalry and intrigue - the Italian born Cardinal
importing Italian culture into a resistant French context - contributes a little "piquancy" to the mix! “It is a great pleasure to welcome this first-class debut disc, which suggests that Le Jardin Secret have a very bright future indeed. The imaginative programme, inspired by the clash of French and Italian musical cultures at Cardinal Mazarin's court, contains much beautiful and unfamiliar music, and the performances are superb.” The Telegraph, 12th July 2008 “Elizabeth Dobbin's expressive soprano gives almost continual pleasure…” Gramophone Magazine, October 2008 |
