Review :
A terrific disc
I love Michael Noone's recordings of Guerrero and this is
another very fine achievement.
Although he doesn't get as much recognition as his
near-contemporary Victoria,
Guerrero's music is excellent. It is
inventive, rich and very beautiful – qualities which this recording brings out
very well. The singing by Ensemble Plus
Ultra is excellent throughout with a lovely blend and balance and real
engagement with the text. The
instrumental work, too, is top-class, with a fabulous rich sound which
complements but never dominates the voices.
It's an exemplary performance, in my view.
The recorded sound and presentation are both of Glossa's
usual very high standard and this is a terrific disc all round. Very warmly recommended.
