  • Description

    With a well-established reputation in orchestral writing, following his recent opera Charlotte, Marc-André Dalbavie further demonstrates his great talent for vocal writing in SONNETS - SEXTINE-CYCLUS - THREE POPULAR SONGS, presenting three works written for countertenor.

    The piece Sonnets was inspired by the poetry of Louise Labbé, Sextine-Cyclus is based on texts by thirteenth-century French troubadours, and Three Popular Songs is a tribute to Claude Debussy's Images pour orchestre.

    The young Ukrainian countertenor Yuriy Mynenko, in his first recital recording, performs the works with full orchestra, and celebrated French countertenor Jean-Paul Fouchécourt interprets Sextine-Cyclus, which he had premiered in France.

    The recording took place in Lisbon, with live accompaniment by the Gulbenkian Orchestra in the great hall of the Gulbenkian Foundation and, for a more intimate setting for Sextine-Cyclus, in the rehearsal room with soloists from the orchestra.
