O GLADSOME LIGHT — LAWRENCE WILIFORD
“Wiliford sings beautifully in what one might call the ‘Aldeburgh style.’ It’s light, clear, sensitive and every word is clearly audible…it does the music full justice.” —John Gilks
BREATHE–James Rolfe
“It’s rhythmically inventive, almost jazzy in places but always quite ethereal.” —John Gilks
INSPIRED BY CANADA/NÔTRE PAYS — AMICI CHAMBER ENSEMBLE
“It’s a hugely enjoyable disc and highly recommended.” —Joseph So
POÈME POUR MI/TROIS PETITES LITURGIES – Messiaen
“Soprano Jane Archibald brings exceptionally beautiful tone and phrasing, as well as perennially clear annunciation, to these mystical songs. She seems ideally suited in a work that exploits her enormous range. Just magical” —Rick MacMillan
DUETS — ROLANDO VILLAZÓN & ILDAR ABDRAZAKOV
“The recorded sound is excellent, and the booklet chockful of bromance photos.” —Joseph So
DON GIOVANNI — Mozart
“Nimbus Records has given fans a thoroughly satisfying reissue of a special performance from the vaults of operatic history.”—Catherine Kustanczy
IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE –Heggie
“This is very much an ensemble piece, with no true arias but many duets, trios and quartets, and making generous use of the Houston Grand Opera Chorus, which sounds marvelous.” —Rick MacMillan
