Full of drama, pathos, colour and intensity, Rossini's Petite Messe was written not for a church, but for performance to a select audience assembled in the lavishly furnished salon of a Parisian Countess's newly built town house. With an outstanding line-up of soloists led by Carolyn Sampson and Hilary Summers, The King's Consort's entry into mid-nineteenth century repertoire on CD could not be more original, nor more distinguished. A new sound world is brought to glorious music.
