"Lamoreaux's limpid, lambent voice, great ease, prodigious range and perfect intonations through the leaps and mellismas of the melodic lines, ideally suit these sequences and hymns." Montery Herald "Lamoreaux's sensitive recital throws new light upon the genius of the great abbess. Her voice, pellucid and supple, is perfectly at ease with Hildegard's demands." Gramaphone Soprano Rosa Lamoreaux is known for her flawless sense of style, incandescent presence, “a wonderfully rich timbre and an amazingly flexible voice†(Washington Post). She has been hailed for her versatile musicianship, her radiant, engaging, and effortless singing, the diversity of her repertoire, and her many fine recordings. An award-winning vocalist with a busy international career, Ms. Lamoreaux is sought after for her beautifully styled readings of repertoire from Hildegard to Shostakovich.After winning the Handel Aria Competition at the Aspen Music Festival and an honor as finalist in the Oratorio Society Competition of New York, her career has taken her to Carnegie Hall, the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion and the Kennedy Center. She has been soloist with the Atlanta Symphony and the Cincinnati Symphony with Robert Shaw in performances of the B minor Mass of Bach and Mozart’s Mass in C minor. She has won critical acclaim for her performances at Bach festivals in both the United States and Europe. Recent performances include the Shostakovich 14th Symphony with the Northwest Chamber Orchestra, Ralf Gothoni conducting, St. John Passion of Bach at the Washington National Cathedral, ...

Ravel: Music For Four Hands / Louis Lortie, Hélène Mercier
$15.05
Ever hear a square-dance caller doing his thing with a symphony orchestra? You will here, along with a bewildering variety of what is euphemistically called American folk music, gussied up for Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops. Folk music there is -- however lushly orchestrated -- but there is also mid-20th century country music, bluegrass, fiddle tunes, Stephen Foster, and what passes for true modern folk music, a medley of tunes from television's golden age of rural programming. Sometimes it gets awfully corny -- the low point being a children's chorus doing "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" at great, intolerable length with a full menagerie of sound effects (if you can sit through that, give yourself a hand). Sometimes the excess weight that some of these songs have to bear is just too much, even within the context of classical "pops." But there is compensation from the guest stars. Tom Wopat offers a gritty variation of John Denver's original vocal in "Thank God I'm a Country Boy." Country fiddler/guitarist/singer Roy Clark goes into overdrive with his band in a medley of fiddle tunes; his electric guitar solos are decidedly uptown and jazzy in tone and he slips gracefully and authentically into the ...

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
While Rory Block had been a remarkably consistent artist over the course of 30 years, if all it took was for her to leave Rounder Records to make a record like Last Fair Deal, one has to wonder why she didn't do it ages ago. Block is one of the most restless and in-the-field artists in the history of contemporary blues. She has continually dug deeper into the muck and the mire of not only the blues but her personal life, emotionally, spiritually, amorously, and psychically, to bring out what is integral to the creation -- not re-creation -- of blues music. She has suffered, endured, and continued to make music that is not only compelling, but necessary for any accurate understanding of the cultural history of the blues tradition because she is perhaps the living female embodiment of it. Last Fair Deal is a record stripped of artifice or niceties. It is raw, feral, tender, sacred, sinful, lusty, and enlightening. On this recording, Block has assembled a collection of songs -- written, re-arranged, and restored -- that showcases the guitar as an extension of her physical and spiritual body. She writes in the liner notes that this is her tribute to the ...
