5.0 out of 5 stars Magic!
Impressive recording!! The duet Gens/Rousset manages to make even better than during their previous colaboration (Tragédiennes vol. 1). Véronique Gens is in full ownership of her capacities and C.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not enough material for a second volume
Almost 20 minutes of orchestral interludes is too much for a disc of arias (1/3 of the total timing).

Les airs sont judicieusement choisis et ils sont interprétés avec élégance et expressivité. Le seul défaut -mais il est de taille quand il s'agit d'un disque de récitals- est qu'il y a une vingtaine de minutes d'interludes orchestraux, ce qui fait presque un tiers de la durée totale du disque. N'y avait-il pas assez d'airs pour faire un deuxième volume sufffisamment consistant ?
