4 out of 5 stars Herreweghe is great........2004-12-24

This is a wonderful recording of Mozart's Mass in C minor. However three out of the four soloists are a bit light in vocal weight for my taste. That is why I don't give it five stars. Jennifer Larmore is the exception, because she has a Mozart voice. The alto soloist is really a soprano in terms of what Mozart asks her to do. This piece is some of Mozart's best work, and it gets good recognition from Herreweghe. Herreweghe is such a great conductor. Listen to the bowing in the strings and the diction from the chorus. He also gets a variety of vocal colors out of the chorus. Only the great choral conductors can inspire the chorus to make such haunting sounds. In my opinion Herreweghe is even better with early music such as Bach, Josquin, Monteverdi and Lully to name a few. This is still a great performance because it represents what people heard during Mozart's time.
