On this showing, however, she is more at ease in her native French than when singing in Italian. This is not to denigrate her Mozart, which is beautiful and spirited, with ‘Pupille amate’ from Lucio Silla wistfully floated and Ramiro’s ‘Va’ pure ad altri in braccio’ from La finta giardiniera delivered with considerable ferocity. It’s just that when she turns to the French repertoire, a stronger imagination and greater depths of verbal subtlety come into play. Urbain’s flippant wit is sharply contrasted with the more caustic humour of the page Stéphano in Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette. At the disc’s mid-point come three slow, sad arias, all of them sung with fastidious beauty of line; but the erotic regret expressed by Price Charming in Massenet’s Cendrillon, Fantasio’s slightly crazed contemplation of the moon and Siébel’s shy devotion to Marguérite in Gounod’s Faust all inhabit very different emotional territory. As at Salzburg in 2012, she’s paired with Marc Minkowski, just as much at home in Mozart as he is in the French repertory. There’s some exquisite playing from the Mozarteum Orchestra, too.
