Music reviews of Faur? - M?lodies / Souzay ? Ameling ? Baldwin

Music Review: A must (but do not miss Souzay's earlier recordings of Faure)
Rating: 5 Stars

While I haven't heard Hyperion's traversal of the complete Faur? songs, I can hardly imagine that it would make this set obsolete. The songs are given here more or less chronologically, so one thing that immediately strikes the listener is the consistently high quality even of the more straightforwardly romantic songs on the first disc. But regardless of the quality of those charming, somewhat simplistic early songs, they pale in comparison with the subtle melodic lines and harmonic refinement of the later songs, written a slightly cool classicist style full of benign humanism - among these you find masterpieces challenging the best of Schubert or Wolf in lyrical, reflective mood. The atmospheres are usually subdued and melancholic, but it is remarkable how many subtle colors and how much emotional variety Faure manages to bring to them.

The performances are, unsurprisingly, masterly. We have two of the greatest singers with two of the most beautiful voices of the 20th century giving performances of intelligence and profundity and the exactly right amount of variety in texture and mood to keep the listener captivated even if he or she were to try to listen to the discs straight through. And Dalton Baldwin is of course the master among pianist when it comes to these songs. That said, even given the beauty and sensitivity of the performances here, Souzay's contributions pale a little compared to his own earlier recording of the most famous of these songs with Bonneau back in the mono days. Sound quality is generally fine, although the piano is sometimes overwhelmed by the voices (i.e. the balance is sometimes less than perfect). Still, there is no way around this set - an obligatory acquisition.
