Music reviews of Amy Beach: Chanson D'Amour

Music Review: Still waiting for that Puccini album...
Rating: 5 Stars

Emma Kirkby, who to my knowledge has rarely if ever recorded much after the death of Mozart, is heard here in an album of art songs by the American composer Amy Beach. Even though it is not her usual style, she is surprisingly musical and expressive in the Romantic repertoire. I offer this album to anyone who has suggested that Ms. Kirkby's singing is expressionless. She proves here that she is more than just flawless technique. Her approach is much different than other sopranos in this repertoire, but she shows amazing emotional and dynamic range. Some of her quiet high notes are quite beautiful, and when she gets louder she sounds much fuller than I would expect. While her almost vibrato-less singing (she does have a bit more than usual on this album) may not be everyone's cup of tea, I would urge anyone to listen to this album for an interesting and unique take on this type of music.
