Distant Light
The great American soprano Renée Fleming shows with this ambitious album that she is far from renouncing musical frolics. True, there’s quintessential Fleming repertoire on it — a gorgeous performance of Samuel Barber’s Knoxville: Summer of 1915 — but Fleming also presents a new orchestral song cycle written especially for her: The Strand Settings, by the Swedish composer Anders Hillborg. Then there are three songs by Björk. No tame excursions into crossover, these, but superbly reimagined arrangements. The Times of London

Mr. Whishaw and Ms. Fleming are, against the odds, marvelous...Ms. Fleming brings a luxuriant, caressing tone to the song fragments...And though it’s a man who narrates Norma Jeane’s story, it is fittingly a woman’s voice that supplies the aural oxygen in which it unfolds.
