Details: Amazon.ca Entirely devoted to Purcell, this "island of the Muse" honors the male viola player Daniel Taylor and the Montreal ensemble Da Sonar, in magnificent interpretations of various works by the English composer. A particularly successful meeting between Da Sonar and Daniel Taylor! The recording is inhabited by the complicity, the pleasure, the musical intimacy shared by the performers. Taylor thrives on this island with grace and simplicity, perfectly expressing Purcell's tenderness. Instrumental pieces alternate here with opera excerpts and songs. The charm of this recording convinced more than one and earned him, in 1999, the Opus prize for record of the year, Medieval, Renaissance or Baroque music category. --Dominique Olivier
