Les beatitudes is a work of contemplatative eloquence, dealing with the opposition of good and evil in essentially passive terms. Jordan keeps a firm hold on the music’s unwieldy form, while allowing its quiet conviction to come through unforced. Persuasive singing enhances an often moving performance.'
