Audiophile Audition‘s Fritz Balwit has a wonderful overview and review for the Bach Aria Soloists’ Le Dolce Sirene recording:
“The most striking feature of this opening track is the keening sound of the violin paired with a minimal cello basso continuo. This was my first exposure to the exceptional skills of the violinist and director of the ensemble, Elizabeth Suh Lane… substantial works that will appeal to fans of modern vocal recitals. They don’t lack variety in either textures or timbres. The soprano sounds completely at home in this music.… Easily the finest work on the cd is the Bach sonata in G, BWV 2021 for Violin and continuo. The cello doubles the harpsichord to strengthen the continuo and Elizabeth Suh Lane does justice to this most profoundly moving work from Bach’s Cothen days. This is nine minutes of musical bliss.… In short, this is a charming and original production that gets my genuine applause. I will search for any future productions by the Bach Aria Soloists and especially the violinist, who should have any number of parks and streets named after her in this first-rate musical city.”
