Herve NiquetAbout
Maturity definitely comes through also in Niquet's interpretation (and this is his fifth recording of music by Charpentier for Glossa alone): a sureness of touch in this repertoire is underpinned by a painstaking scrutiny of the sources, allowing the French conductor to make some original choices for the interpolations within the Mass Ordinary sections - instrumental and vocal in symphonies and motets. Zest, vigour and lightness of touch remain potent elements of Niquet's approach for the music of this most spectacular of French composers.
Recorded at IRCAM, Paris, in July 2008.
