| | Alfred Deller |
| | Deller's unusual voice was particularly suited to Renaissance music and to the music of Handel and Purcell. | | | THE ARTS: Crossover at a high pitch; It was Handel that made him famous; now the countertenor Andreas Scholl has released a folk song CD and plans a soul-funk album. | | | In 1948 he formed the Deller Consort, which presented authentic performances of medieval, Renaissance, and baroque music; the consort made numerous recordings and performed all over the world. |

| | I am actually surprised that it has been released as even the LP was arcane and not widely known as the father and son recording was the very popular one. | | | The shrink wrap has come off the Deller CD of the two Bach solo alto cantatas-agnus dei (with a few of the items from the Handel disk). | | | Really different from Deller's own 1964 recording of it! |

| | It was an un-selfconscious and, in Deller's case, completely sincere effort, born of a deep commitment to music in general and specifically to the beauty of melody and the poetic word. | | | Deller's exemplary solo performances are supplemented by instrumental pieces for viols and/or lute, and we're reminded of how at this stage in period-instrument performance, such things as tuning and consistency of ensemble balance could be rather ephemeral or at least unreliable. | | | Listen carefully, or you'll miss the most finely-wrought, heartfelt utterances ever captured on a recording. |

| | Although it's not among Harmonia Mundi's recordings, I always will be convinced that Deller's rendition of "Annie Laurie" (Vanguard) is the most perfectly executed song performance ever captured on disc. | | | You also may wish to investigate his other, earlier recordings on Vanguard, where you'll discover, in comparison to these selections from late in his career, the remarkable consistency of interpretation and of vocal quality and technical facility. | | | Anyone who closely listens and compares his singing to that of his contemporaries and successors comes away with the conviction that no one has been able to do with a song--even the simplest, most basic folksong--what Deller did. |
