Comparison with her 1980s recordings of the Bach, Handel and Vivaldi throw the changes into high relief. Fast passages are a touch more reflective, less carefree and dangerous, though her pitching remains unerring. The sweet naïve clarity that wooed us all is enriched by alternative, more intense colours - her singing is more varied.
