Music reviews of Handel: Dettingen Te Deum; Zadok the Priest; Organ Concerto No. 14Music Review: SpendidMy first experience of the Dettingen Te Deum was on a Nonesuch LP by the Telemann Society, who were noted for playing very vigorously but only approximately in tune. Their Te Deum was loads of fun, but not something you could take all that seriously. Stephen Layton offers something much more up to date. His chorus sings with beautiful balances, and the orchestral parts are child's play to The Academy of Ancient Music. It was a good idea to pair the Te Deum with Zadok the Priest. Both works are Handel in his ceremonial mode, and they certainly lift the spirits. The performance of the organ concerto is lyrical and lovely. Richard Marlow plays an organ built in 2000 for Sir John Eliot Gardiner's Bach Cantata series, and it has an appropriately mellow tone. Sound engineering throughout the CD is excellent, if a little distant. I had a good time listening to this, but I can't help but keep on thinking of the Telemann Society.
