专辑简介
While Michael Tippett was a brilliant composer of operas, oratorios, symphonies, string quartets, and piano sonatas, he was at best an indifferent songwriter. For one thing, while Tippett assiduously cultivated the big forms, he rarely turned to song form — this disc contains nearly his entire slender output — and thus never quite gained the compositional technique for writing songs. For another thing, the long-limbed ecstatic melodies of Tippett's operas become in his songs merely long-winded tedious melismas. For yet another thing, coupling Tippett's songs with his realizations of Purcell's songs, while ingeniously filling out the disc, is also invidious because the earlier composer's easy naturalness as a song composer makes Tippett's anxious awkwardness all the more apparent. So while tenor John Mark Ainsley and Ian Burnside clearly love Tippett's songs and do everything they can to make them succeed, Ainsley's strong but flexible tenor and Burnside's supple but powerful accompaniments simply make Tippett's songs seem punier and less significant. While listeners who admire Tippett's music deeply and without reservation will have to have this disc, even they might be disappointed by the quality of the songs.
