About

Following his award-winning recording of Donizetti’s 'Les Martyrs', Sir Mark Elder’s second Opera Rara release of 2015 features a rare recording - Gounod’s delightful opera La Colombe ('The Dove').

Sir Mark and the Hallé are joined by a wonderful cast, led by two of the most acclaimed young singers in the world today - Erin Morley and Javier Camarena, along with the established French baritone Laurent Naouri and mezzo Michèle Losier.

Reviews

One hero of this admirable Opera Rara release is Mark Elder, utterly committed to Gounod's score and coaxing elegant music-making from the Hallé. [...] Best of all is the young Mexican tenor Javier Camerana as Horace. No wonder he was only the third singer in the history of the Metropolitan Opera to perform an encore onstage during his debut The Barber of Seville last year. Christopher Cook
