Title: Fascinating
Review: Unlike Axel below, I like Gardiner's Bach very much. JEG has come a long way in his interpretations, and is now just as much at home with the reflective material as he was with the festive material, where the Monteverdi Choir, the precision machine of choirs, can strut its stuff. Gardiner refuses to accept second-best in anything and he wants what he wants - he obviously has issues with lead trumpet Mark Bennett on that score! The DVD gives a great view of a master at work.As someone else said, I would have liked to have seen a final complete performance, but then, this is a studio recording, and I have the CD version of it. (For a really glorious live performance, DO NOT MISS the Gardiner DVD of the Christmas Oratorio, recorded at the Herderkirche Weimar, which blows every other version away).
