2009 Gramophone Award Winner - Baroque Vocal Recording of the Year By any standards this is a major release. Even in a year which is seeing, predictably, a glut of Handel releases, many of them extremely fine, this stands out. A tremendous issue. One to keep on the shelves and return to frequently. |

| The surprise package here is Agostino Steffani’s Stabat Mater. Its flavour is sober and devout, but it’s also deeply felt, the textures rich, the writing both sonorous and sensitive. The Sixteen perform it eloquently. They also combine precision and maximum excitement in the precocious, thrilling brilliance of Handel’s Dixit Dominus. | |||||||||||||
