  • There is a mysterious question. The first task is to find the question, the second the answer. Most of us do not even know there is a question. Nora

  • @noratranvouez I truly don't understand

  • Dessay and Gens compliment each other beautifully... as for the gestures, yes, Dessay exagerates. But the sounds are glorious.

  • There's nothing "flaccid" about Handel's work. It's sparkling and brilliant beyond compare. Handel kicks ass!

  • @hymnofashes A truly stupid comment.

  • @hymnofashes A foolish and stupid statement. 

  • Poudrions-nous savoir qui a signé la coreographie?

  • @alejandra379 I agree too. I think Dessay works really well in duest and Gens is just superfb at this whole period. I honestly had reservations before I clicked on this because of what I'd heard, but am so gla dI waited til I'd heard it. It definitely rivals the DiDonato /Ciofi recording I forked out NEARLY £15 for grrrr lol Of all the ensembles, I would love to hear live the Concert D'Astree and The Sixteen more than anyone else.

  • I find myself aroused by these musicians, but they evidently prefer Handel and his flaccid compositions.

  • @sour7lemon To be more clear, for ex, generally I do not agree with the Glenn Goud's interpretation of Bach's Well tempered clavier WTC. In another hand, I do not like very much Richter's WTC. But I recognize that Gould and Richter always find what is THE main question of each prelude and each fugue, and also of the work in itself. I do not like the answers, but I know Gould and Richter are great musicians who pose clearly the question. Here VG and ND are looking for the question ! Nora

  • In each important music piece, there is something to find. Then, when it is found, the interpret has to bring this "something" to the public. Well : I suppose it is not very clear. But when I see Veronique G & Nathalie D looking for something, it is more clear. Nora
