About
We are familiar with the flamboyant baritone Laurent Naouri, a distinguished exponent of the four villains in 'Les Contes d'Hoffmann' from Paris to The Metropolitan Opera New York and an unforgettable Golaud in 'Pelléas et Mélisande'. But here it is a much more intimate Naouri, the lover of 'Mélodies' by Fauré, Debussy and Poulenc, who invites us to a rendezvous.

October 2020
If, like me, you’re a fan of Naouri’s handsome, imposing portraits of operatic villains, the soft-focus delights of this beautifully intimate recital of French song might take you a little by surprise on several levels: swapping out the piano for guitar shines a seductive, dimmed light on these favourites by Fauré, Debussy and Poulenc, with the raindrops of Fauré’s Spleen falling with special magic thanks to the unusual instrumentation. It’s simply gorgeous.
