International Record Review

October 2012

“there is fine singing here...and I was impressed with much of the account...It is [the] aspect of 'historically informed' performance in Hagel's recording that, as the work progresses, is most convincing.”

MusicWeb International

August 2012

“Throughout I was struck by Wolff’s agreeable and extremely bright tone together with her splendid projection and diction...I found the mighty dramatic outburst from the Weilburg choir simply stunning. Hagel directs with assurance, at a beautiful pace and with appropriate reverence. The choir and orchestra are in immaculate form and can stand comparison with the finest.”
