MESSIAH HWV56 / 2CD+1BR-AUDIORecording: London, All Saints Church, Tooting, 12/1996
George Frideric Handel's "Messiah" in this CD + Blu-ray Audio edition presents one of the most beloved oratorios of all time in an impressively detailed and spatial sound experience. Conducted by Paul McCreesh and performed by the renowned Gabrieli Consort & Players, this recording focuses on stylistic authenticity, clarity of texture and a vivid, dramatic narrative of the biblical story, from the prophetic Old Testament visions to the triumphant "Hallelujah" and the contemplative closing scenes. The Blu-ray Audio disc offers high-resolution sound that captures the nuances of the choir, soloists and period instruments with exceptional precision, while the accompanying CD makes this interpretation easily accessible in any standard audio setup. Together, they provide both audiophiles and musically curious listeners with a complete, immersive way to discover or rediscover Handel's masterpiece.
This production benefits from Paul McCreesh's long-standing experience in historically informed performance practice. Under his direction, the Gabrieli Consort & Players shape a flexible, transparent and rhetorically expressive sound that highlights both the intimacy of the arias and the power of the large choral movements. Attention to original performance conditions, careful articulation and dynamic shading bring out the emotional depth of the work without sacrificing structural clarity. The result is an interpretation that sounds fresh and immediate, yet deeply rooted in Baroque performance tradition. Listeners can expect finely balanced choral writing, agile string playing, characterful winds and a vivid sense of space, particularly on the Blu-ray Audio layer.
