Carolyn Sampson and Joseph Middleton are recording so much these days that it’s hard to find a new vocal disc without one, the other or both. ‘Elysium: A Schubert Recital’ showcases them in core repertoire in a programme themed around songs concerning the afterlife. Authority and intelligence are evident in song choices, sequencing and performance in this somewhat soft-spoken disc that’s surely among their best. ... Sampson is at her best in the nocturnal ‘Nacht und Träume’, with a masterly balance of word articulation and legato line. Few singers so effectively build the tension of a song with a slow expansion of tone, especially in the sublime ‘Du bist die Ruh’. It seems that the more she records, the better she gets.
