Es ist meine erste Gelegenheit, diese Messe anzuhören. Erstaunlich fein komponiert und wunderschön interpretiert mit gut harmonisierten Stimmen der ausgezeichneten Chöre und durchsichtigen doch herrlichen Stimmen beider genialen Solisten sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Kammerensemble im gut betrachteten Tempo und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!
Everytime I hear a John Rutter work my cynical brain starts out complaining "oh here comes goofy ol' John Rutter doing his same old John Rutter things". But by the end my heart is moved and, more likely than not, there's a tear in my eye. No one does it like him.
Comparing this with his 'Gloria', which just sounds like regurgitated Walton to my ears, here is the true Rutter. Simple and sincere. Nothing forced. Yes, bringing Tallis's Canon is something that Britten did at the end of 'Noyes Fludde', and the figuration beneath is from Fauré's Requiem, but it took Rutter to combine the two.
Jeremy Huw Williams your voice made me cry it's so beautiful
Im just sitting here crying from the beauty. Its the middle of the night and i had a very rough few weeks and this just hits like a train

Nice seeing Rutter here, would love a video with his Magnificat
Dona nobis pacem is a wonderful finial for this magical suite of ancient prayer forms.
Pain brings out the art in some of us as in Rutter's beautifully composed and constructed mass...
his music is so hilariously over-written it's fantastic. that Gloria was very enjoyable to sing along to!!
What do you mean by over-written?
Great work!
Reminds me of Benjamin Britten.
