Haydn: The Creation / McCreesh, Gabrieli Consort & Players

Remarks:

"McCreesh has worked wonders with this popular but difficult score, and the Gabrieli Consort and Players produce a performance of considerable electricity... The orchestral and choral performances are superb throughout. Although expanded forces are used, the lucidity of the textures and attention to detail equals the Gabrieli Consort's usual high standards, and McCreesh's spirited attack means that 'period performance practice' does not have to equate to preciousness; rather, the use of period instruments gives the recording a depth of sound that matches Haydn's astounding text. In short, a highly recommended release, available at a special low price." -MusicalCriticism.com
