Music reviews of Handel - Messiah / Ameling ? A. Reynolds ? Langridge ? Howell ? Marriner
Music Review: The Definitive Messiah!
Rating: 5 Stars
I have this Messiah in several mediums, most recently on MP3. This is the best interpretation of Handel's most famous work. Ely Ameling is superb! The tempos are perfect - brisk and lively, and the chorus is on pitch, not dragging, and, thank goodness, not shouting and screaming, but singing beautifully. If you can afford only one recording of the Messiah, this is the recording to purchase.
Description of Handel - Messiah / Ameling ? A. Reynolds ? Langridge ? Howell ? Marriner
Neville Marriner's 1976 account of the Covent Garden version of the score (1743), with the Academy and Chorus of St. Martin-in-the-Fields and soloists Elly Ameling, Anna Reynolds, Philip Langridge, and Gwynne Howell, is positively plush-sounding but nicely animated. I'd love to have this kind of string tone for, say, the Dvor?k Serenade, but for Handel it may be just a bit much. --Ted LibbeyGeneral CDs
