Elizabethan Songs
Thomas Campion Beauty, since you so much desire Love me or not Your fair looks Never love unless you can O never to be moved The cypress curtain of the night Awake thou spring of speaking grace Come, you pretty false-eyed wanton So tired are all my thoughts Fire, fire Pined I am, and like to die Author of light See where she flies Fair, if you expect admiring Shall I come, sweet love, to thee? It fell on a summer’s day Kind are her answers Beauty is but a painted hell Sweet exclude me not Are you what your fair looks express? I care not for these ladies Never weather-beaten sail. Drew Minter — countertenor Paul O’Dette - lute "Included here are songs that expound on the pains and pleasures of love, as well as more spiritual issues, in exquisite Elizabethan language… firm, attractive sound... colorful, vibrant accompaniments." — The New York Times ´ Les airs de Campion sont parmi les plus beaux, et parmi les moins connus. […] Cette anthologie est donc la bienvenue et nous propose un tour d’horizon de l’art de Campion. Les deux solistes sont parfaitement à la hauteur de leur tâche et interprètent admirablement ces chants aux tendres mélodies. […] Nous tenons là l’interprétation parfaite d’un univers poétique subtil. ª — Classic |
