5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful and brilliant!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Handel: Messiah (Highlights) / Solti, Chicago Symphony (Penguin Music Classics Series) (Audio CD)
Solti really does a very fine job conducting, and this recording captures all the brilliance, power, majesty, and spiritual beauty of this masterpiece more than any of the other ones I've heard. Te Kanawa's beautiful voice enchants, and the orchestra plays with great rhythm. Last but not least, the sound is perfect, all the details are very clear(digital quality). You will feel as if the chorus and trumpets are right in your living room!

One of the best classical recordings.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Handel: Messiah (Highlights) / Solti, Chicago Symphony (Penguin Music Classics Series) (Audio CD)
Bravo Kiri and Sir George Solti for such an examplary performance! The best classical recording, if not one of the best I have purchased. The orchestration is very good, if only Sir George were alive I'd like to congratulate him for his one of his best efforts. Kiri is at her best in this recording, although I never believed in her, she has made me a believer. The choral section is magnificent! Highly, highly recommended.

This review is from: Handel: Messiah (Highlights) / Solti, Chicago Symphony (Penguin Music Classics Series) (Audio CD)
One of the best recordings ever ! The other "Worth is the Lamb" tend to be very very slow and boring.
This has a perfect flow. The sound quality is excellent and powerful, you feel as if you were in the audience !!
4.0 out of 5 stars
Handel With Energy!,
By Albert Lynd (Edmond, OK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Handel: Messiah (Highlights) / Solti, Chicago Symphony (Penguin Music Classics Series) (Audio CD)
A rare combination of dramatic choral singing, outstanding soloists, super orchestral playing( especially the trumpet), all coordinated by the master of musical drama...Solti. An outstanding collection.
