Honegger: Melodies et Chansons / Patacca, Vural, Ross, - Centaur - CEN 3151 - 0447

American Record Guide, November/December 2012
The singers are quite good, and if they are not always up to the challenge of Honegger's considerable technical demands, they deserve to be applauded for their unfailing attention to the poetry and their clear and direct communication of the text. The booklet includes generally helpful (if sometimes unaccountably obtuse) notes and the full texts, in French with (not quite perfect) English translations.
