I bought the CD to get Shaw's version of Vivaldi's Gloria. It is glorious. Regardless of the musical style, Shaw's approach always makes music worth listening to. I'm not sure one can find that level of competence in contemporary recordings. It was digitally recorded in December of 1988. btw, the Bach is good too.
December 15, 2008 |  | Vivaldi's Gloria, and Bach's Magnificat, by Robert Shaw et al |  |
Of all the performances of the Vivaldi Gloria I have listened to, I like this the best. Clarity, emphasis, orchestra, soloists - all excellent. A balanced performance. The Bach is a bonus...
March 16, 2008Robert Shaw can always be depended on to reveal a piece in all of its potential splendor, and this recording is no exception. It's a rather dated recording, but absolutely required for a well rounded choral/baroque collection. I felt very lucky to have been able to still obtain it here.
January 15, 2007This is a very enjoyable performance of Vivaldi's exuberant Gloria: crisp baroque ornaments with exceptional solo voices, smooth choral work; light clear orchestral accompaniment.
The magnificat is also nice.
March 19, 2006I have now performed both of these choral masterworks. This recording is useful as a rehearsal aid for myself and made it easy for me to learn the pieces in between choir rehearsal nights. I am also a big Dawn Upshaw fan, mostly because she has performed with us on several occasions, so I admit to being biased about this recording because she is included. I do look for Robert Shaw recordings when possible because I consider him to be an authority on choral singing. I think the mastering on this CD was well done and overall, it's a clean recording which is enjoyable for listening's sake as well as for a rehearsal aid.
