*****
“Thielemann generally favours lively tempos and a lightness of touch. Details are clear and he elicits a remarkable luminosity from the substantial forces, making this a deeply engaging account...The chorus is impressive and the soloists well matched...Blu-ray brings the expected crispness of picture, and the sound is wonderfully natural.”
