Background: This is the premiere recording in English of Poulenc's opera 'Dialogues of the Carmelites'. Poulenc did something deeply unfashionable in the mid-1950s when he wrote Dialogues of the Carmelites - in an era of modernism he created an opera that was dramatically coherent and musically intensely pleasurable.

This recording is taken from the critically acclaimed ENO staging. The Times wrote of the performances, 'Daniel was able brilliantly to capture the peace at the heart of the work and the final, absolute silence was mesmerising'.
