- description
Lucy Shelton, Sarah Leonard, Eileen Hulse, Oliver Knussen - Alexander Goehr: Sing Ariel/ Ancora
Sing, Ariel sets a patchwork of texts, ranging from Milton to Wallace Stevens, for 3 solo sopranos; it is coupled with The Death of Moses, a vast choral exploration of Hebrew myth.
Originally released on Unicorn-Kanchana in 1993/4. Reissued with funding from Arts Council England.
Reviews:
"Sing Ariel is a marvellous song cycle for soprano. There's a vast range of texture and mood, often expressed through the simplest means."
BBC Music Magazine 2004
