Free Music Notes for Bach - Mass In B Minor

Free Music Review: Very disappointing
Hit: 2 Stars

The soloists manage to focus well enough on their solos. But on the choral pieces, they're not able to muster a consonant between them. Except for the occasional ss or ch or ooo, the choral texts are a blur of schwa. And, the first soprano is frequently inaudible.
Is it possible for an ensemble to be OVER-blended? Something is definitely wrong with the mix! It sounds like they were going for ethereal, but instead of angelic, it sounds quite ghostly.

Bach - Mass In B Minor Poster

This recording is, quite frankly, a marvel. In the opening bars of the Kyrie, where tradition dictates a powerful, agonized cry for mercy, Philippe Herreweghe offers a gentle, awestruck plea that took this listener's breath away. Extroverted movements like the Gloria, Et resurrexit, and Sanctus lack nothing in excitement; Qui tollis and Dona nobis pacem feel like fervent prayers. Herreweghe's luminous Collegium Vocale and skillful, sensitive instrumentalists make every gesture, large and small, seem exactly right. The soloists have attractive voices that blend with the period instruments and each other; while each is exquisite, tenor Christoph Pr?gardien and alto Andreas Scholl are magnificent. Underlying the entire performance is a sense of contemplative wonder that suits this deeply religious music perfectly. -- Matthew Westphal
