  5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and bright performance by young singers

  Verified Purchase

  One of the best Messiah recordings. Beautiful and bright performance. Young singers with light, bright, and warm lyrical voices. Julia Doyle, Iestyn Davies, and Allan Clayton sing with a good balance between technical virtuosity and sincere expression. Bass Andrew Foster-Williams has both authority and power. The chorus is excellent and the polyphony between the sopranos and tenors is particularly beautiful. Church acoustics are vibrant, bright and well articulated. A Messiah performance for repeated listening. Recommended along with many others, including: Christie, Perlman, Susuki, Davis, Higginbottom, Hogwood, Parrot, Gardiner, Hickox.
