Collegium Vocale Gent, Philippe Herreweghe
Herreweghe’s unswerving focus is evident from the opening chorus, whose elemental summons is exactingly calibrated, dark-grained and resolute…Schmitt’s Evangelist narrates with exemplary pacing... — More…

RecommendedAkademie für Alte Musik Berlin, René Jacobs, RIAS Kammerchor

Haydn: Die Schöpfung
RecommendedAnna Lucia Richter (soprano), Maximilian Schmitt (tenor), Florian Boesch (baritone), Il Giardino Armonico, Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks, Giovanni Antonini

Freiburger Barockorchester, Zürcher Sing-Akademie, René Jacobs
If it all convinces that’s because Jacobs has an absolute instinct for Weber’s score. The horns of the Freiburger Barockorchester are almost a character in their own right in this Romantic opera... — More…

RecommendedSophie Karthäuser (soprano), Marie-Claude Chappuis (mezzo), Maximilian Schmitt (tenor, Johannes Weisser (baritone)
Freiburger Barockorchester, RIAS Kammerchor, René Jacobs
Choir members are the virtuosos here. Their flexibility enables them to enrich or bleach vocal colour, and flood or dry up volume levels, to the subtlest degree. Jacobs plays the choir like an... — More…

Collegium Vocale Gent & Orchestre des Champs-Élysées, Philippe Herreweghe

Freiburger Barockorchester, René Jacobs
Of the principals only Johannes Weisser’s Don Pizarro disappoints, and even he is strong in the dialogue. Jacobs’s tempos are fast – sometimes a bit skittishly so – and the sublimity one looks... — More…
