CD Reviews

Bishop among the best

Frederic Bourgeois | Palo Alto, CA | 05/31/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Although he's not known at all, Bishop wrote music of pure delight, perfectly matched to Shakespeare words. Joy, passion or comedy are rendered with the right tone by Philipp Picket and his musicians. The soloists and the orchestra obviously took great pleasure in performing this rare pages, as well as the listener do. The recording is perfect too. The balance between the voices and the orchestra is even. As for the style of the music itself, if you enjoyed Thomas Linley Jr.(1756-1778), you will love Bishop. A must for curious listener."
