This recording is reviewed in the following publications:-
Diapason - No.507 octobre 2003 p.106 [IAA]
American Record Guide - Vol.35 No.7 March 1969 p.566 [JWB]
Comments:- The LP issued by ERATO and reissued by MHS has excerpts from Armide on one side and from Isis on the other. The singers are stated to be Nadine Sautereau, Jocelyne Chamonin, André Mallabrera and Roger Soyer, but, from the information that I have available, it is not clear if they all take part in both sets of excerpts. The excerpts from Armide are Overture; Duet; Renaud's Slumber; Armide's Monologue; Passacaille. The CD also includes a recording of Caprice de Villers-Cotterêts by Lalande.
