Author:
The recital opens delightfully with Quand je fus pris au pavillon, the vocal line benefiting from some lively contrasts of smooth and staccato phrases. Le rossignol des lilas shows a flexibility with words, a way of lightening syllables and giving more conversational ease to the utterance.
The songs by Bizet and Chabrier, composers for whom Hahn had a particular admiration, form a happy extension to the programme, and all are beautifully performed. The recording has a pleasantly intimate acoustic, and presentation, with good English translations and an appreciative essay by Danielle Laruelle, is admirable.'
