Joel Cohen may well be the best precisely where, a priori, you least expect him to be. If anyone is a many-faceted talent, it is surely he, since he undertakes, with the Boston Camerata, seven centuries of music, including, a few years back, a very interesting Gilles Requiem. Joel Cohen proposes the same journey –with complementary Gregorian chants– in these Lamentations for Holy Week. Aside from a few details (the three readings are a too-dry punctuation for the musicality of the prayers), this is an inspired recording. First of all, one must acknowledge the maestro's sensitivity to the specific characteristics of Occitan culture… a sensibility that Northerners tend to view, reductionistically, as simply warm and friendly. Through the works examined here, the South's mysticism takes on an austere, almost Jansenist shading, different from the less-abrupt manner of northern French composers. Curiously, this tragic vision of existence also has a theatrical side (in the déploration), different from, but distantly influenced by, Italy. It is this specific [Occitan] identity which inspires the American team. They bring out the sense of the words with great acuity, and reveal, in the distress of Gilles' Ténèbres, a kind of sacred fire that recalls the penitential works of Gesualdo. The most astonishing thing is that this multi-religious group (Jews, Protestants, perhaps even some Catholics) has such an instinctive affinity for the liturgical mysticsm of the composers –the most precious of these, despite Gilles, being the inspired and unpredictable Bouzignac. His sacred emotion –in the sense of dramatic gesture, of colorful imagery– is without equivalent in France… To conclude, the deeply-felt performance of the Camerata in Heu! Unus ex vobis, music describing Jesus' agony on the Mount of Olives, is unsurpassed even by the sublime version of Les Arts Florissants. [That ensemble] plays the card of exacerbated mournfulness… From now on, we must also reckon with Joel Cohen, explorer-archaeologist of the Grand Siècle.Diapason, April 1995
