5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Handel, 20 Feb 2009
By Sid Nuncius "Sid Nuncius" (London England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This is an excellent performance of these great works. Handel's Op.6 set are often thought to stand with the Brandenburg Concertos as the pinnacle of the Baroque Concerto Grosso, and it's certainly a defensible point of view. They are truly outstanding works, full of richness, imagination and sheer pleasure for the listener. There are many great interpretations already on disc, and this stands with the best of them in my view.

Manze and the Academy of Ancient Music bring a bright, fresh approach and put a spring in the step of the concertos, without losing any of the great sense of structure and solidity which is central to these works. This may not be to everyone's taste, but I love it - the music dances and glows with sheer delight in places and retains the right degree of weight and solemnity in others. It's an absolutely cracking set, and I recommend it wholeheartedly whether you're looking for a single recording of the Op.6 concertos to last you a lifetime, and even if you already have one or more that you love. You will find plenty of freshness and new insight here.

4.0 out of 5 stars Handel op 6 from Manze/AAM, 5 May 2009
By r.b. (tyne and wear U.K.) - See all my reviews
Everybody who loves Baroque and Classical music in general knows how good Handel's magnificent op6 are.Composed in 1739 these masterpieces are the equal of anything by Bach or any other composer for that matter.The Academy of Ancient Music,directed from the violin by Andrew Manze,produce technically impeccable performances with fantastic concertino playing.The playing is of such a high standard that it's almost unbelievable at times.
I have gave 4 stars instead of 5 because there is also a hard driven rather high octane feel about it which,although exhilerating,is a little too much sometimes - the opening allegro of concerto 1 is a prime example.
Nevertherless this is still possibly the best period recording of op6.
If however you prefer a less driven but still lively account on authentic instruments then i recommend Christopher Hogwood's Decca release with the Handel and Haydn Society,although it should be noted that their playing is less polished than the Academy Of Ancient Music.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lacking in breadth, 26 Oct 2008
(23 May 09 - an edited version of a review that was not popular - perhaps because it lacked detail). I count myself a fan of Manze's work and am 100% committed to period performance in this music - to my ears modern orchestral sound seems especially unsuitable for Handel - and these are stimulating accounts. But as with Pinnock's (but even more so) they lack variety so that it is hard work to listen to many of these works in sequence. OK, they weren't intended for that but when beauty, breadth and grandeur are all underplayed I find the result less than the rewards you can get from other performances. This set is also rather expensive. Compare all this with the old Harnoncourt set which is marvellously varied, always stimulating and just makes you want to keep listening.
