Excellent Music!,

This review is from: Festive Mass at the Imperial Court Vienna 1648 (Audio CD)
This cd contains masses of several relatively unknown 17th century composers (baroque era) with settings for full chorus, orchestra, trumpets and drums. Absolutely excellent music, very stirring, very breath-taking. Very highly recommended for the baroque music lover.

Strong recording of Festive Mass,
This review is from: Festive Mass at the Imperial Court Vienna 1648 (Audio CD)
As the title indicates, there is a celebratory air to the works on this disc, which may have been performed as a complete mass after the signing of the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648. The music of Italian musicians began to be heard at the Imperial Court of Vienna during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648) and this Mass includes music by three Kapellmeisters, a Lutheran composer and an Italian virtuoso - offering an intriguing glimpse of seldom recorded composers of the period. The motets, instrumental sonatas and Mass Ordinary Settings by Gabrieli Fantini, Andreas Rauch, Antonio Bertali, Christoph Straus and Giovanni Priuli are vividly performed by the Yorkshire Bach Choir, the Yorkshire Bach soloists and the Baroque Brass of London and recorded in the acoustically ideal space of a North Yorkshire chapel.
