An interesting French take on Monteverdi's Lamento della ninfa, introductory male chorus in 3 parts and all. Delalande's ornamentation is fiendishly difficult! The score can be found online on the BnF website so one can follow the written-out (most unusually for the time!) ornamentation that Delalande jotted down. As fine a coloratura as Claire Lefilliatre has her difficulties executing everything as written. I'm not dissing her, just saying - I doubt that any other soprano today could sing it better than her.
Wow I think I'm in love with Vincent,
with Claire, and
...with all the 'Poeme Harmonique' actually ^-^ !!!
Extraordinary!!! Please post more!
Le poeme harmonique is amazing Monsieur Dumestre is truly a genius
They are indeed magical
