Catharsis-Illuminations,LP,1975,France

Here's Another one By Catharsis.


This album contained recordings from June and November 1971 featuring Charlotte's distinctive chanting on many tracks. Her academic vocal training shines through (the members were former music academy students), sometimes close to Donella Del Monaco in Opus Avantra. The musical variety was greater than before, ranging from the transcendental "Aube" via uncommon treatments of music from the 17th and 18th Century, to the childish "Mignonne allons voir". Among these short pieces are some of Catharsis finest recordings. (Code C)
