Review title: Inspired
Product review: Karajan and company radiate affection in every bar of this glorious music. Despite the sophistication of the playing, the rustic, Germanic roots of Haydn's invention are not lost. The commitment of the singing erases any suspicions that this line-up of soloists is too high-powered. Janowitz sings with an innocent purity that is disarming and the male soloists make fervent contributions too. I can't comment on this latest remastering but the earlier "Galleria" reissue sounds marvellous. The orchestra glows in the spacious acoustic; the sound of the flutes, in particular, gives me great pleasure. The only possible reservation is that the choral focus is slightly less than ideal (a bit 'scattered' at times). No matter, consider this recording essential.
