5.0 out of 5 stars Harnoncourt understands the baroque principle `sublime`, January 10, 2000

This review is from: Haydn - Missa in tempore belli ~ Salve Regina / Röschmann, von Magnus, Lippert, Widmer; Harnoncourt (Audio CD)

And he fully exploits it. Haydn is the example of what a baroque musician should/could be, and from the thundering tympani beginning to the last `give us peace` I stand completely in awe of the demanding way in which God`s grace and peace is invoked here. Haydn does not ASK, he demands, claims it. Beautifully performed. Once again, long musical lines, extreme contrats, and the beauty of sound for once not the most important thing, but rather a confrontation with the listener. Harnoncourt at his best!

4.0 out of 5 stars Haydn's Paukenmesse, March 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Haydn - Missa in tempore belli ~ Salve Regina / Röschmann, von Magnus, Lippert, Widmer; Harnoncourt (Audio CD)

This is a wonderful recording of the Missa in Tempore Belli (also known as the Paukenmesse) of Haydn. (It gets the title Paukenmesse from its use of the tympani, or Pauken in German.) Nikolaus Harnoncourt does a wonderful job in conducting this great masterpiece of Haydn's. I thought that the tympani was a little much in the Kyrie, but it was fine, though.

The Salve Regina has much to commend it as well. This has quickly become a favourite recording. To all those interested in 18th century sacred music, this is a recording you may well want to acquire.
