Special offer. Saint-Saëns: Ascanio
Jean-Francois Lapointe, Bernard Richter, Eve-Maud Hubeaux, Chœur et Orchestre de la Haute École de Musique de Genève, Guillaume Tourniaire
It would be good to report that this is a lost masterpiece. It’s not, but it is a carefully crafted late version of the form that Meyerbeer had invented for Paris…Competent to a fault, Saint-Saëns... —

Frédéric Antoun is a bright, not exactly nuanced Sabatino and Jean Teitgen a warm and sympathetic Renzo, but the main prize goes to Véronique Gens for her utterly superb singing of the title... —

Orchestre Symphonique Region Centre-Tours, Ensemble Vocal Erik Satie, Ensemble Vocal Jacques Ibert, Ensemble Vocal Opus 37, Jean-Yves Ossonce
