Requiem
Les Arts Florissants
William Christie
Erato 0630-10697-2

William Christie interprets this music marvellously, using a style that differs from his baroque interpretations. I think the Requiem is the most beautiful piece Mozart ever wrote.

BACH

Magnificat
Collegium Vocale
Philippe Herreweghe
harmonia mundi
HMC 901326

Discovering Bach under the direction of such an inspired conductor as Philippe Herreweghe was a unique experience for me.

Bach again. I’d rather take two copies of this disc, so if one gets damaged, I'll still have another!

MURCIA

Codex nº 4
Ensemble Kapsberger
Rolf Lislevand
Naïve Astrée E 8661

Rolf Lislevand is a rare musician who has succeeded in leaving the baroque niche without inhibitions while making what sounds like world music. This is one of the most successful recordings in this genre that I know. Best listened to in the morning!

VIVALDI

Suonate a violoncello solo
Les basses réunies
Alpha 418302

For 15 years now I have had the good fortune to have worked with Bruno Cocset, the most gifted cellist of his generation. It has been a great privilege for me.
