"I enjoyed the experience...Firstly, the presentation...soloists, orchestra and choruses...is top-drawer. The collective weight and momentum of these massive forces are well contained by DG's engineers, wave upon wave of exultant sound" Gramophone Awards Issue (London) / November 2007
I enjoyed the experience...Firstly, the presentation - soloists, orchestra and choruses - is top-drawer. The collective weight and momentum of these massive forces are well contained by DG's engineers, wave upon wave of exultant sound...There is a crystalline beauty to so much of the music here above the ether...[he] conveys a Messiaen-like sense of wonder on the way to redemption.
