This is a desirable disc - one in which Auvity’s distinctive haute-contre amply conveys the emotions of these varied and beautiful airs. L’Yriade are excellent in their accompaniment … The sound is beautifully captured and well balanced … Glossa should be applauded for this release. 
Auvity’s flexible mastery of florid details and poetic declamation [is] adept throughout shifting contrasts between soft seductiveness (‘Ruisseau qui nourrit dans ce bois’) and indignant complaints (‘Non, non je ne l’aime plus’). Some accompaniments are richly textured by L’Yriade’s two violins, cello, theorbo and harpsichord, all of whom create sensitive textures and sensual rhythms as the music demands … The flowing sequence of songs and sonatas ticks along without time for pause, creating a musical journey that leads inexorably to the exquisite chaconne from ‘L’Impériale’.
