4.0 out of 5 stars Exciting Handel, contemplative Caldara., 14 Jun 2005

By	P. SIMPSON "nucaleena" (North Yorkshire, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

I love both of these pieces and have them both on redbook cds, the Caldara on an excellent (and cheap) naxos disc, one of several of Caldara's church music they've produced. Rene Jacob's recording of Caldara's "Magdelen at the feet of christ" was one of the records of the 90's and is one of my desert island discs.

On this SACD, in the Caldara Missa Dolorosa the soloists sound just right and the tempi are natural.

The Handel Dixit Dominus is the main work on the disc and it is given a refreshing and exciting performance. The Dixit was written in Rome and is a tribute by the young German genius to Italian culture of the period, in all its manifestations, including celebratory . Handel had clearly assimilated the musical lessons not only of Vivaldi but also of many other Italian composers such as Lotti, Rossi, Grandi, Albicastro and Alessandro Scarlatti and added his own distinctive genius to them.

The Dixit reminds us that the church music of the time was not just of the serene and solemn Monteverdian Vespers tradition but was also as lively as much Italian secular music. Much of it was was celebratory, and celebration is as much part of worship as slowness and solemnity (and a lot more fun).

The recording is a little on the bright side and there could well have been more ambience from the rear speakers. The soloists are a bit uneven, but the latter factor seems to enhance the feeling of spirited devotion from a group of singers, so I don't object too much.

I'd give the sound a 3.5 and the Handel performance a good 4.5 stars and the Caldara 5.
