"Si J'ai Aimé, which brings sparkling soprano Sandrine Piau together with the period-instrument Le Concert de la Loge and director Julien Chauvin. Songs by Berlioz, Saint-Saëns and Duparc jostle with some unfamiliar gems by composers you've probably never heard of, in a programme of French miniatures that's a pleasure from start to finish".

"Editor's choices - May 2019: The French soprano's in lustrous voice on this almost indecently gorgeous album of orchestral songs with the period instruments of Le Concert de la Loge: Saint-Saëns's butterfly flutters exquisitely, Charles Bordes's Promenade matinale has a louche seductiveness worthy of Piaf, and the two songs from Berlioz's Les nuits d'été are thrown into fascinating relief by the tracks which surround them (Massenet's Le poète et le fantôme surely shares its DNA with Au cimitière, and both are despatched with an uncanny beauty here)".

"This new song recital celebrates French song with orchestra ... by masters such as Berlioz, Saint-Saëns and Massenet as well as by the more obscure figures of Dubois, Guilmant, and Bordes. Julien Chauvin and his period instrument ensemble, Le Concert de la Loge, not only provide excellent accompaniments to the songs but leaven the vocal numbers with brief orchestral pieces ... This is a very fine recital disc in terms of both repertoire, performance, and documentation".

"Choral & song choice: This is utterly adorable from start to finish ... In the booklet Piau speaks of her joy at performing this kind of repertoire and her rapture is palpable from the breathless opening moments of Saint-Saens's 'Extase'. Soaring above the luminous timbres of Julian Chauvin's period ensemble Le Concert de la Loge, Piau's fresh-voiced delight infuses Berlioz's Villanelle', Vierne's 'Beaux Papillons blancs' and Bordes's affable 'Promenade matinale' ... Piau's sublimely unaffected performance of Martini's 'Plaisir d'amour' ... is merely the cue to play the disc again".

"Es ist eine Wanderung durch sanfte und wohlgefällig melancholische Klanglandschaften, auf die uns die Sopranistin und ihr ausgesprochen diskretes Originalklang-Begleitensemble ... mitnehmen ... In Piaus bestechend klarer, vibratoarmer und schlankstimmiger Artikulation geht kaum eine Textnuance verloren; freilich ist fast alles recht gezügelt und erregungsarm, von Ekstasen keine Rede. Ein Jahrhundert zurück kann sie unvergleichlich sein - hier ist sie nur sehr gut".

"This attractive disc finds Sandrine Piau and Le Concert de la Loge, with their conductor Julien Chauvin, exploring French orchestral songs from the late 19th century, a popular genre at the time ... With her silvery tone, immaculate sense of line and telling if understated way with words, Piau is very much at home in this repertory ... Chauvin and his orchestra ... are outstanding throughout, unearthing subtleties in music that is often quite simply but always effectively scored. It's a most engaging disc".
