Canada’s It Boy baritone Philippe Sly has a new album coming out from Analekta on March 12. It features four cantatas of Jean-Philippe Rameau that also include soprano Hélène Guilmette. They are accompanied by period-instrument keyboardist Luc Beauséjour and consort.

The album is being streamed for free by CBC Music in advance of next week’s release. It sounds like a winner, based on my first listen.
