Dorothee Mields has specialized in 17th and 18th century music from early on in her career and performs with the Collegium Vocale Ghent and the Bach Collegium Japan. Her artistic work and her repertoire extend from Monteverdi and Bach to Grisey and Furrer. The Lautten Compagney Berlin is one of the most renowned German baroque ensembles. “It's heartening to hear a German ensemble perform Purcell...with such conviction. Dorothee Mields is a fine soprano who is as confident in the melismas of "Sweeter than roses" as she is heartfelt in the broken phrases of 'O let me weep"; and, on the whole, her English is excellent.” Gramophone Magazine, October 2010 “Mields has barely a hint of an accent, and is marvellously expressive throughout, suggesting more than a passing familiarity with the English language...The instrumental playing...also has much to recommend it.” International Record Review, September 2010 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
