popular music: John Eliot Gardiner     popular music:     John Eliot Gardiner      Bach - Christmas Oratorio / Gardiner Johann Sebastian Bach Archiv Produktion, 1990 an essential part of my yearly Christmas experience It surprises me that a number of people here have given this splendid recording negative reviews, but that is , I guess, proof that people's tastes and expectations are different. What I expect from any Bach performance by (Sir) John Eliot are forward-moving tempi ...             Bach: Magnificat, BWV. 243; Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen Johann Sebastian Bach, John Eliot Gardiner, ... Philips, 1990 Bach's Magnificat is Here Magnificent! This is a magnificent recording of Bach's Magnificat. The sound quality is superb, the soloists and choir clear and moving, and the orchestra flawless in execution. In fact, the Gardiner series of recordings (the Mass in B minor, St. Matthew's Passion, St. John's ...             Bach: Advent Cantatas Olaf Bär, Johann Sebastian Bach, ... Deutsche Grammophon, 2000 delightful cantata I found this album is shown as excellect level as others performed by Gardiner and the Monteverdi choir. I especially want to pick up good soprano, Nacy Argenta, her beautiful performance to lyric dream. I recommand the "Schwingt freudig euch empor" BWV 36, althought ...             Mozart for Your Mind Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Colin Davis, ... Philips, 1995 Wonderful Selection of not as famous but good works! The two works on this CD that are most known are The Magic Flute Overture, which is filled with brilliance from measure one to the end, and the opening piece to the movie Amadeus, the G Minor Symphony. These two pieces are superb but just because they are more known, ...             Mozart: Great Mass in C minor /McNair * Montague * Rolfe Johnson * Hauptmann * English Baroque Soloists * ... Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, John Eliot Gardiner, ... Philips, 1990 Among the Finest of the Available Recordings Mozart's MASS IN C MINOR K 427 can be a mixed bag if not under the hands of the right conductor. The work itself is spotty with elements of radiant, exalting beauty along side some (pardon the thought) filler: Mozart himself was aware of this, as the work is ...             The Baroque Christmas Album Johann Sebastian Bach, Marc-Antoine Charpentier, ... Archiv Produktion, 2005 5-PLUS Stars There are not many things in life that I would describe as just Gorgeous -- but this album is definitely one of them.

This ...             Händel: Messiah Robert Hale, Timothy Mason, ... Philips, 2003 a voice teacher and early music fan NO VICTORIAN SANCTIMONIOUS POMP IN THIS 'MESSIAH'" SAYS GARDINER. John Eliot Gardiner's period instrument version can be confidently mentioned in the same breath with any of the great "Messiah" recordings of the past. In fact, in many ways, at the time of this ...             Essential Baroque Essential Baroque Decca, 2002 High-quality, marvelously varied intro to baroque music I am buying this as the perfect gift for Russian and Chinese scientist friends. They have knowledge of classical music but perhaps not much about baroque music, which achieved special popularity in the U.S. during the 1970's and 1980's. Russians seem to have more ...             Brahms: Symphony # 1; Bergrabnisgesang, Op. 13; Schicksalslied, Op. 54; Mendelssohn- Mitten wir in Leben sind ...

RCA, 1999 One well worth the price of two This two cd set is an odd juxtaposition. The first cd consists of a sampler of Bream's career output - but without (and I believe the omission is disgraceful) any acknowledgement of Bream's significant contribution toward the creation of a truly 20th century concert ...             Beethoven: 9 Symphonies - Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique / Gardiner Ludwig van Beethoven, John Eliot Gardiner, ... Archiv Produktion, 1994 Amazing By my estimation this is the best single cycle of Beethoven symphonies available. Since there are so many great recordings of Symphonies 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 9, I won't focus on those as much. Symphony No. 1 is performed very well. It is taken a bit faster (a ...             Mendelssohn: Symphonies Nos. 4 "Italian" & 5 "Reformation" Felix Mendelssohn, John Eliot Gardiner, ... Deutsche Grammophon, 1999 Popular classics Felix Mendelssohn was a Romantic composer who embraced the ideals of classicism when that trend in the Germanic countries were falling out of favor, save a few.

Soli Deo Gloria, 2005 Forget Suzuki and Koopman, Gardiner is the man! There are currently three Bach Cantata series underway.

Gardiner undertook recording the ...             Bach: St. Matthew Passion / Rolfe Johnson, Bonney, von Otter, Chance, Crook; Gardiner Johann Sebastian Bach, English Baroque Soloists, ... Archiv Produktion, 1989 Triumphant The debate between performance styles will likely rage for the remainder of recorded/performed music. Set all of that aside.
