Couperin: “lecon de tenebres” and others / Judith Nelson, Emma Kirkby
This is one of the most moving religious songs written by Couperin. However, I feel that the singing of Nelson and Kirkby is not so suitable for French songs. Of course, that’s just my opinion. On the other hand, I think the performance by Montserrat Figueras in the movie “Tousles Matinsdu Monde” is the best I have ever heard. It is a pity that only the third lecon is included on the soundtrack disc. #baroque #couperin #片山俊幸
