Catherine Bott, soprano

Leo Scotiae Irritatus and other cantatas by
John Clerk of Penicuik (1676-1755) 


smileySoprano Catherine Bott, one of our greatest exponents of Baroque music, has never sounded more winning, handling with dextrous ease the vocal pyrotechnics these demanding works command.

Definitely one of the most important releases of Scottish music, and one immeasurably enriched by John Purser's enlightening notes.sad
