Really lovely recording, been really enjoying it over christmas.Jose Echenique wrote:
Not just a new recording of Messiah, but a very special one. Superbly conducted by Dutch maestro Peter Dijkstra, this is a Messiah as thrilling, awe inspiring, and beautiful as any you have heard. The amazing Bavarian Radio chorus sing as stylishly as any period chorus, with perfect diction and flawless intonation. The young period orchestra B´ Rock from Belgium play splendidly. The soloists know what they´re singing about. Definitely NOT a routine performance. And the live sound from the Herkulessaal from Munich is exemplary.
Many thanks for the recommendation.
