This review is from: Handel: The Chandos Anthems I-VI (Vanguard) (Audio CD)

This is one of the most beautiful recordings of Handel's vocal music ever issued--aesthetically superior, in my view, to the very good performance by The Sixteen. It is a tragedy that it is out of print and I encourage all lovers of Handel and baroque vocal music who would like to have it to contact Vanguard (or current copyright owner if Vanguard has been bought out by someone else)to demand its reissue.
