Title: Great, but be forewarned...
Review: This is one of the few recordings of these pieces that I can listen to without intermittently hitting the skip button. The singing is techincally brilliant without sounding brittle or overly dramatic. The soloist in the Pie Jesu is competent if not awe-inspiring, which is more than can be said of most recordings using boy soloists. What I like most about this CD is that the sound levels between the musicians and chorus are fine! The brass does not overwhelm the choir at strategic points, and the trebels don't squeak over everyone else. This may not be the most officially historically accurate rendition out there, but it is definitely the easiest one to listen to. Just one warning: These are not the same recordings as appear on the Angus Dei CDs also put out by New College and Capricorn. If you liked the Faure Requiem pieces on those CDs, you'll probably like this recording too, but they do sound different.
