My review of the new recording of Handel's incidental music to Tobias Smollett's play Alceste, from Christian Curnyn and his Early Opera Company with Lucy Crowe, Benjamin Hulett and Andrew Foster-Williams is here, on MusicWeb-International.com - Chandos CHAN0788
If
you haven't yet made the acquaintance of Handel's personable score,
then this is the time to do so and this is the recording to go for.
And my review of Bach's Mass in B Minor from Philippe Herreweghe and Collegium Vocale Ghent, with Dorothee Mields, Hana Blazikova, Damien Guillon, Thomas Hobbs and Peter Kooij is here, also on MusicWeb-International.com - Phi LPH004
If
you are looking for a good middle of the road modern recording then
this is one to consider.
