Cantatrix, Geert-Jan van Beijeren Bergen en Henegouwen

Cantatrix is an ensemble aiming for the highest level of choral singing. In their first CD the singers present a programme of mainly contemporary music. The principal characteristic of the repertoire in this recording is the high degree of variety, resulting in, you’ve guessed it, contrasts.

“the choral balance and tone are excellent...the performance of 'Go, song of mine' is beautifully shaped, with expressive phrasing from the sopranos. Lauridsen's atmospheric songs are sung in good, idiomatic French, sensitively accompanied by pianist Noriko Yabe” Gramophone Magazine, December 2010

Phoenix Bach Choir, Charles Bruffy

“Where has this fabulous choir been all my life? No choral strength you can name eludes them… Chandos’ usual lucid and unaffected notes, full texts and resplendent SACD-hybrid sound conspire with irresistible choral wizardry to make this an absolute must” American Record Guide
