"majestic performance under Kent Nagano, with superb soloists including sopranos Sylvia Greenberg, Lynne Dawson and Sally Matthews, altos Sophie Koch and Elena Manistana and tenor Robert Gambill. Mahler's masterwork emerges in all its rococo splendour, his rich orchestral textures and bold vocal writing adding up to a secular mass for our times." (The Observer on Mahler 8)
"…it is Manze, perhaps, who best captures the radiant character of Biber's score and who seems most readily to revel in its sheer vitality. His upper and middle vocal strands illuminate the music with brilliant meteoric showers…" BBC Music Magazine on the Biber Missa Christi
