Best of Andreas Scholl (Decca)[MP3][twistle]



Andreas Scholl (1967 - ) : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andreas_Scholl

A CD with some truly beautiful tracks, sung by Andreas Scholl (arguably the world's best countertenor for generations). This CD is, imo, not quite a collection of his "Best" - as with most compilations thus named, it's more a collection of famous bits from divers styles - but most of it is good, especially Track 6 which is simply sublime even when compared to versions by other artists (Chance, Blaze, Jaroussky, etc).

This isnt the same recording of Track 6 as on the CD, but this YouTube clip will give you some idea of his voice if you are unfamiliar with it! (Be sure to watch it in HQ)

I did not rip this CD myself; it is one of the few I possess from an internet source. I'm not sure who to credit, though! This CD does not appear in the main torrent indices, so I think its worthy to upload as a torrent here.

(NB. Slight truncation of Track 10)
