Soprano Sabine Devieilhe's signature operatic role, Lakme, forms the starting point for her enticing albumMirages. A collection of opera and song in French, it's theme is the exoti c allure of faraway - and imagined - places and people. In addition to three numbers from Delibes' opera, it features music by Berlioz, Debussy and Stravinsky and some rarer names: Thomas, Messager, Koechlin and Delage. Devieilhe is joined by mezzo-soprano Marianne Crebassa, pianist Alexandre Tharaud and the period-instrument orchestra Les Siecles under it's founder, Francois-Xavier Roth. Show more
