September 2020
It’s hard to believe that only fifteen instruments are involved in the more dramatic passages, though the reduced forces also allow the lighter-than-usual voices of the two soloists (both excellent) to glow. The luminous Abschied is particularly poignant given that it now stands as De Leeuw’s own farewell recording.

This recording reveals a resourceful and sensitive instrumentation, exquisitely delivered by Het Collectief, that allows Richardot and Saelens the widest dynamic, tonal and emotional range.
