- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 September 2017This version of the requiem benefits from the expert control of the orchestra and singers by the renowned John Eliot Gardiner, who is no stranger to conducting religious works. Although the soloists, on the whole, perform well, I would have liked the soprano to have sung with more volume, since to me her voice came over a bit thin. On the other hand I was pleased to have the much celebrated Willard White included in the soloists as I regard him as one of the best bass singers of the modern era. I consider this requiem to be one the greatest works of its type ever written.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 October 2013I was recommended this disc, and I like it very much. What stroke me, was Gardiners ability to *not* push the music. It breathes naturally, which I think suits the music very well. Many of the "hidden lines" are heard because of his not pushing, and not using to much sound in the orchestra. The chorus are delivering a subtle and articulated account. Barbara Bonney delivers some beautiful phrasing indeed ! Highly recommended.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 September 2020I loved listening to a fine performance of this requiem. It's a piece that I hope to be learning once choirs are allowed to sing again and listening to the cd will help.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 April 2017Not a big fan of Mozart- more a Beethoven fan- but I just happened to hear this on a TV programme. Only an excerpt but wanted to hear more. Happy with purchase and the only reason for four stars is still prefer Beethoven. But all reviews are subjective.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 October 2013It came with German text on the disc and paperwork which a) isn't a problem for a CD and b) seemed vaguely appropriate. The disc actually came from the US so took a few days but I wasn't in a hurry.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 January 2017Good clear open sound. Enough singers for me. I prefer this to my existing Berliner Philharmoniker on Deutsche Grammophon which seemed a bit muddy to my old ears.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 March 2017Besides being probably one of the finest pieces of musical composition ever, this version is performed with great sensitivity and finesse. A wonder ous thing.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 February 2016This is the sort of performance that got JEG his name - absolutely brilliant in every respect. If you want this work, you will not get anything better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Une version baroque et romantique...
Gardiner dispose pour cet enregistrement de son orchestre jouant sur instruments anciens, The English Baroque Players, du Monteverdi Choir et de quatre bons chanteurs dont Barbara Bonney et Anne Sofie von Otter.
Ds les premires notes de l'Intro?t, la diminution de l'effectif produit son effet, en bien. Le jeu de la petite harmonie simplifie voulue par Mozart (ni fl?te, ni hautbois) se dtache de la masse des cordes chatoyantes, se fait mditatif. On retrouve le mme rquilibrage entre le ch?ur et l'orchestre qui perd son simple r?le d'accompagnement. Mme si le tempo est plus rapide (48' au lieu de 63' chez B?hm !), l'?uvre retrouve une couleur merveilleusement limpide. La prire devient intimiste. Dans son clbre enregistrement de 1971, B?hm nous offrait la grandeur mystique, Gardiner nous replonge dans les chapelles baroques de l'Autriche. Musicalement, c'est trs beau, presque allgre dans le sens o l'interprtation se veut rsolument certaine du chemin d'une ?me vers un monde paradisiaque. Cette conception de Gardiner est confiante et justifie donc pleinement ce fervent raffinement. Il ne faut pas oublier que le franc-ma?on Mozart ne devait gure imaginer un enfer de feu, un au-del de dsesprance promis par une ?glise toute puissante l'poque.
Barbara Bonney chante, elle aussi avec simplicit et tendresse, une discrtion et un respect vis--vis du Sauveur et de l'?me qui prend son envol. Les mlodies s'entrecroisent sans aucune lourdeur. On est loin des expriences minimalistes et dsincarnes de la plupart des concurrents baroqueux.
Le trombone naturel dans le Tuba mirum ne fait pas peur. ? l'vocation d'un terrifiant jugement dernier, Gardiner prfre annoncer l'arrive vers la flicit. Les chanteurs sont excellents, techniquement, et par la retenue et la religiosit bienveillante qu'ils suggrent.
On aurait pu esprer un Rex tremendae un peu plus lent donc moins cavalier vis--vis du Trs-Haut. Infime dtail, mentionn par le chroniqueur pour montrer quel point la vision de Gardiner approche une forme de perfection dans les principes musicologiques sur lesquels elle repose.
C'est galement vrai pour le Lacrymosa. Mais Gardiner apporte un phras scand et des variations de tons qui rendent la prire intime, secrte et volontaire. Toujours ce sentiment de confiance dans la destine.
Une interprtation sans doute historique qui doit rconcilier anciens et modernes, mme si sa conception spirituelle se situe aux antipodes de celle de Karl B?hm.

5.0 out of 5 stars No wobbly vibratos (thank goodness)
An avid Mozart listener, I find the modern renditions of his breathtaking music most often too heavy handed, with too much sound too much of the time. In this more traditional recording, we rediscover the lightness and clarity of sound that Mozart is known for. Thank goodness--no more Verdi-esque performances by artists who believe they are singing the dramatic Romantic solos instead of the more precise Classical solo. The clarity of tone and the beautiful singing are what draws me, the classical singer, again and again to this gorgeous piece, finally rendered by singers with precise pitch. The CD remains fitting homage to a brilliant composer and without a doubt one of the jewels in my collection.
