A new disc of delights from the sprawling oeuvre of Charpentier is always welcome, especially when it comes from an ensemble as reliable and adaptable as Arcangelo. A quick glance at the list of singers and instrumentalists gathered by Jonathan Cohen for these recordings is assurance enough that they won’t lack for expertise, musicality or style’ (Gramophone)
‘Charpentier’s Leçons de ténèbres are among the glories of French Baroque music … these performances by Arcangelo of the Litanies and Magnificat are unfailingly expert … the baritone Stéphane Degout and the tenor Samuel Boden strike a fine balance between the meditative aspects and the near-operatic drama of the words from the Lamentations of Jeremiah’ (BBC Music Magazine)
