3.0 out of 5 stars Budget Bach 12 Aug 2012
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
An impulse buy, based on some raving crtic or other. But total performers add up to less than 20 people, including "choir", soloists, orchestra, conductor and man who tuned the harpsichord. I sense Bach would have been greatly disappointed -- "not at all what I hoped to hear when I wrote it". The small band of performers performs well, but the music loses stature in this Budget Bach performance. Still, the recording's financial controller must have been happy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get the Minkowski instead. 12 Aug 2012
Format:Audio CD
This recording from Herreweghe and his Franco-Flemish band sounds fine, but for more musical grandeur in equally budget Bach, Minkowski Bach: Mass in B minor (+Book)is hard to beat on Naive. Sonically the surround sound SACDs from JunghanelBach: Mass in B minor, KuijkenJ.S. Bach - Mass in B Minor, BWV 232 and Suzuki Bach: Mass In B Minor, Bwv 232 are quite impressive in similar configurations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Herreweghe outdoes himself 10 Feb 2013
By R. Lane - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Philippe Herreweghe's second recording of Bach's radiant Mass in b minor (MBM), made in 1998 for Harmonia Mundi, has been my most played recording of my favorite choral work for over a decade. I could not imagine how he could possibly better himself when this recording was announced.

When it arrived the first distinguishing mark that immediately raised my expectations was the recording location - the Jesus-Christus Kirche in Berlin. The conductor/choral director, who has total control of the new semi private Phi label that is dedicated to Herreweghe's ensembles and artists, hauled his forces from Belgium to Germany and likely paid considerable fees to use the facility. That alone should clue everyone in regarding how serious Herreweghe is about making recordings that are lasting testaments to his legacy.

And the listening experience confirms that is truly a MBM to be cherished with the very best. Herreweghe was first a choral conductor, and his Bach performances reflect that heritage - the ensemble singing is unmatched elsewhere. The same can be said for the soloists in duets, trios, etc. Herreweghe knows how to unify artits, and this carries through to the orchestra as well.

Herreweghe's two previous recordings of the MBM, the one mentioned above and a 1988 recording, displayed the same strengths. But the quality of this new recording on Phi that sets it part is the audio. The venue is one of the best in the whole world, as fans of von Karajan can readily attest. Just enough reverb to give the listener some sense of location, but not cavernous. Microphone placement is outstanding. Soloists are clearly discernable from each other, as are the different sections of the chorus, but they still blend remarkably well too.

Highest possible recommendations!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Herreweghe - let the music do the talking 19 Dec 2012
By Robert L. Mackenzie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Herreweghe's ensemble is an excellent instrument. Excellent sound, superb dynamic control, and with the precision that Bach demands. He is faithful to the score and is yet not cold or neutral. In particular he manages rhythm superbly and avoids the temptation that many others fall in to of too much rubato with the rhythm.

Highly recommended.
5.0 out of 5 stars Achingly beautiful - Incredibly nuanced 24 April 2013
By Robert Ryan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
It's taken a long time to find a recording that captures the power and subtlety of this sublime work, but for me this is it. The voices are extraordinary without exception, and rendered with precision and warmth......Far more moving than many of the 'grander' recordings that have come before......
