"The descent of Orpheus into the underworld ... was turned into a two-act opera around 1686-7 by Marc-Antoine Charpentier, better known for his sacred music ... Throughout, the writing is rich, unusual yet immediate. Orpheus's journey through the underworld in search of Eurydice is memorably expressive".

"The scenes in which [Orpheus's] singing eases the torments of the damned in Hades are among the most haunting in his output ... It is gloriously sung here by Aaron Sheehan, in a stylish, intense performance".

"Recording of the week: [Van Mechelen's] singing of both title-roles is so beguiling and emotionally engaging that it's entirely understandable that the denizens of the underworld are heartbroken at his departure ... It's the relationship between the musician and the souls in torment (a distinctly more sympathetic bunch than Gluck's Furies) which lies at the heart of both works, and the humanity with which this is conveyed here makes this a recording to treasure".

"Opera choice: In this unfailingly beautiful performance, Ensemble Correspondances reflects the relatively modest forces available to Charpentier ... Robert Getchell is an appropriately sweet-voiced Orphée and Caroline Weynants a delightful Eurydice ... The recorded sound captures faithfully this small-scale ensemble performance that is a near-ideal realisation of this delightful, if modest, entertainment".

"Det meste af handlingen fortælles i melodiske recitativer, og kun Orfeus synger noget, der ligner arier. Korindslag og balletnumre sørger for små afbræk undervejs. Det hele bliver ulasteligt fremfør af Ensemble Correspondances ... Tenoren Robert Getchell ... behersker den franske stil fornemt ... Udgivelser med fransk barokmusik - hop ud i dem, selvom både titel og komponist ser ubekendt ud".

"Denne indspilning forener de to fremragende belgiske ensembler Vox Luminis og A Nocte Temporis ... CD'en indeholer to udgaver af Orpheus-myten. Den første er komponeret i 1684 og er en dramatisk scena ... Den anden udgave er skrevet et par år senere og nærmer sig mere operafomatet ... Sangere og orkester styrker musikken på flere niveauer uden at forvrænge dramaet. Van Mechelen præsenterer en lyslevende Orpheus ... og den kollektive tilgang gør i høj grad oplevelsen fascinerende".

"Opera choice: Van Mechelen is a seductive Orpheus - small wonder that his limpid, pliant, expressive voice and eloquent diction enchants both his nymph-bride Eurydice (brought to life here by the dewy-voiced Déborah Cachet) and the god Pluto (stylishly sung by Geoffroy Buffière) ... The sensitive interplay of voices and instruments has all the intimacy of chamber music ... Alpha Classics's recording is luminous and detailed".

"Vocally superb ... to my ear the singers of the Ensemble Correspondances have the edge, Caroline Arnaud's performance in the role of Proserpina tipping the balance. Charpentier's vocal ensembles, in particular, are enchantingly beautiful and the variety of ways in which he combines and contrasts them always supports the dramatic pacing ... Well worh owning and revisiting for the sheer delight of Charpentier's music".

"The music for the viols is simply ravishing, and it's beautifully played. Van Mechelen sings powerfully, with more than a touch of desperation. The other instruments of A Nocte Temporis provide excellent support".

"Vurdering: G (Editor's choice)" - "Aaron Sheehan, who sings the role of Orpheus, a finely nuanced interpretation ... Amanda Forsythe is a charming Euridice and Rosélie, Teresa Wakim a beautifully styled Flore and Dorothee Mields a compelling Amaranthe and Proserpine ... Bravo!".
