Alfred Deller - Complete Vanguard Recordings

35 CD - MP3 192 Kbps - 16 RAR 3.11Gb

"Deller, the first modern virtuoso countertenor, is most often cited for his unmatched expressiveness, his ability to hold an audience rapt with his long-breathed phrases and uncanny, subtle shadings of tone and dynamics. And if you're wondering what this is about, just listen to his rendition of Dowland's "If my complaints", a virtual clinic in vocal poetry. Listen carefully, or you'll miss the most finely-wrought, heartfelt utterances ever captured on a recording. The world has not seen the equal of Alfred Deller; even though we have countertenors today with purer, more even and luxurious tone, none of these singers surpasses Deller in sheer, fundamental artistry or an understanding, internalized feeling for the art of song itself."
