When Richard Maunder's editions get together with Christopher Hogwood and co, you know instantly that the result will be spot on. The sound of the boy treble line (singing alto as well) is earthy yet in tune, and well complemented by the strong lower parts. The orchestra is supportive yet unobtrusive. The dynamics and phrasing are all well chosen and executed. The choice of soloists is inspired, especially Arleen Auger - such a beautiful voice. It is just a pity that there is not more on the disc - some have argued in the 'Dona ut Kyrie' tradition that an Agnus Dei could be tacked on at the end using the music of the Kyrie. An excellent recording.

Éternel oublié de l’histoire de la musique anglaise, John Eccles (1668-1735) en est pourtant un des maillons les plus importants. Appartenant à une grande famille de musiciens, membre des « Vingt-quatre violons du roi », il consacra le meilleur de sa production à l’opéra. Son chef-d’œuvre, Semele, emprunte les innovations françaises et italiennes tout en conservant la spécificité propre aux conceptions anglaises.Longtemps privée d’une édition moderne, la musique d’Eccles recommence à faire surface comme en témoigne cet enregistrement de concert de la reconstitution de sa Semele, captée en 2019 lors d’un concert donné à la chapelle du Trinity College de Cambridge, sous la direction et la réalisation de Julian Perkins, à la tête d’une douzaine d’excellents solistes et des forces conjointes de la Cambridge Handel Opera Company, du Cambridge Early Music et de l'Academy of Ancient Music.Cette Semele est restée dans quelques mémoires grâce à son livret utilisé par Haendel pour son dernier oratorio en 1743. Quant à l’opéra d’Eccles, il a fallu attendre 1972, soit deux-cent cinquante années après sa création, pour le réentendre dans une version incomplète. Cette nouvelle version est une véritable révélation et l’on ne peut qu’être étonné d’un si long oubli. L’oeuvre, d’une grande beauté, alterne les ressorts de la comédie et de la tragédie en décrivant l’humanité face aux Dieux qui représentent les miroirs de ses propres passions.
