On en parle
“Rosemary Joshua brings to these accounts all the aplomb of a Baroque diva, with her sharply etched diction, perspicuous dramatic insights and varied vocal timbres...It would be easy for Joshua to steal the show, but the instrumentalists respond to her pliant vocal lines with sensitively articulated continuo playing.”
BBC Music Magazine
“For a singer who began her career in the early 1990s, Joshua sounds astonishingly fresh — Emma Kirkby like in the purity of her sound, although she brings a wider palette of colour to this kind of music than the veteran early-music diva ever did.”
