Reginald Mobley (counter-tenor) & Baptiste Trotignon (piano)
Tijdens de lange periode waarin Bach, Mozart en Beethoven de klassieke muzikale canon van West-Europa creëerden, weerklonken de liederen van Afrikaanse slaven in de kolonies en plantages aan de andere kant van de Atlantische Oceaan, die hun pijn en verlangen, maar ook vreugde en verlangen naar vrijheid uitten. De Amerikaanse countertenor Reginald Mobley en de Franse pianist Baptiste Trotignon hebben hun buitengewone talent en gevoeligheid gecombineerd om hulde te brengen aan deze spirituals en de muziek van zwarte componisten.

Trotignon:
Why
"For all its beauty, the album also feels like a call to action. The horrors of racial violence cannot be separated from this repertoire, and a sense of urgent injustice is brought home by these performances of dignity and power."
BBC Music Magazine - August 2023 *****
"Steal Away is, for me, the highlight of the disc and where text, melody, arrangement, voice and piano all combine for a few minutes of heart-stopping beauty. Likewise ‘Deep river’, the final track, is most touchingly done by both artists."
