Meyerbeer

Aleksandra Kurzak is in striking form with an album of arias sung by legendary French soprano Cornélie Falcon [MC]

An interesting and enterprising recital but a question mark over the suitability of the voice for some of the material [PT]

A vital and compelling celebration of Roberto Alagna’s 60th birthday [GF]

It is pleasing to see Meyerbeer operas receiving attention and this live recording is first-class [MC]

A welcome release that promises much but doesn’t always deliver [MP]

This praiseworthy live recording of L’Africaine will undoubtedly assist Meyerbeer’s rehabilitation [MC]

A welcome chance to reassess Meyerbeer’s posthumous opera in a new critical edition [MP]

Thirteen pieces, eleven cathedral organs, nine organists, one excellent concept [JF]

A young soprano evidently to look out for, in a lovely debut recital [PT]

I enjoyed some unhackneyed repertoire and the marvellous singing [GF]

(Déjà Review) A most satisfying recital by major artists in repertoire which expands our understanding of the composers [TB]

Ten very well-filled discs documenting six glorious decades at the Paris Opera [RMo]
