Crossland’s elegance and subtle tonal gradations particularly shine in the Suite in D; listen to how she appears to throw the introspective phrases of ‘Les soupirs’ away while moving over the bar-lines, or the sense of weightless propulsion she generates in the churning rhythms of ‘Les tourbillons’. This is Crossland’s finest CD yet, and one hopes that she’ll set down Rameau’s remaining keyboard works in due course.
