The 10 best classical records of 2022

5. “In this ear-opening recital of music by and about women, the South African soprano captures a comprehensive range of expression, revealing gems from Clara Schumann, Emilie Mayer and Nadia Boulanger, a perceptive new cycle from Kathleen Tagg and, perhaps most powerful of all, songs by Rebecca Clarke, whose fantastical and haunting The Seal Man packs a substantial punch.”

Jessica Duchen – The Sunday Times – 11 December 2022

Performance ***** Recording *****

“… This Be Her Verse is an outstanding album; expertly programmed and performed with terrific verve.”

Natasha Loges – BBC Music magazine – July 2022

*** Good Album

Olivier Brunel – Classica magazine (France) – June 2022

“… The sound engineering I felt did a good job of not bringing the voice too up-close as some vocal albums tend to do, which in turn allowed me to appreciate Schultz’s silvery timbre and Ware’s thoughtful playing. With an interesting and well-balanced selection, the duo really does the theme of the album its due justice. A highly enjoyable listen.”

Azusa Ueno – theclassicreview.com – 19 April 2022

“… Musically creative Golda Schultz opens up a wide range of forms. From simple to intensely immersed, whispering and declaiming, she succeeds in multi-layered approaches to expressing the emotions of the music… In Jonathan Ware she has a subtle accompanist at the piano who is aware of his importance in shaping the pieces and uses it to make his point, yet … lets her take the lead. Sonically, the recording is direct and close, but impeccably captured. With additional percussive elements in the songs of Kathleen Tagg and rhythmically intense, these songs go stylistically somewhat in the direction of jazz or, at times, gospel, and thus offer a completely different starting point for the conclusion, which the performers savour.” ****
