CD Reviews

Handel's Messiah - simply the BEST recording!

Cissy Rae | North Central Texas | 11/22/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is, by far, the most superior rendering of Handel's beloved "Messiah" to ever grace any recording. The soloists are superb, the direction is marvelous, and the choir is deft and dynamically on top. Compared to other recordings (especially American choirs, and I'm American, so I can say that) this one simply "feels" right, with the baroque nuances Handel employed so well. I hope you will enjoy it and treasure it as much as I have."
