Richard Bonsall is receiving excellent reviews. The following review
appeared in the October 2004 issue of 'Cathedral Music' magazine:
"Richard Bonsall is correctly described as a 'boy soprano' and
I can honestly say that this is the finest voice I have ever reviewed
for Cathedral Music! I would go so far as to describe Bonsall as the
best boy soprano since Billy Neely, who recorded in 1950. Whilst maintaining
that distinctive boyish quality, it is a true soprano voice, beautifully
and effortlessly soaring to the heights and richly descending to the
depths in a pure head tone, reminiscent of a bygone age. He sings
with emotion, not too much vibrato and his diction is excellent. Tadpole
Music is to be congratulated in reproducing the best of Bonsall's
tracks, recorded when he was 13 and 14 years old in the early 1970s.
Cathedral choirmasters please take note! This CD deserves to be in
every music lover's home. The repertoire is delightful, so sit back
and enjoy a really good concert !..." |
