Philips Classics has had the honour of presenting the first ever recording made of this adorable Berlioz mass after its rediscovery in 1991 and showing what a lot of absolutely beautiful surprises it has to offer.
Gardiner's highly acclaimed Berlioz recordings are not only original and scholarly but also vibrant and enthralling. Both the leading Berlioz experts of our day, David Cairns and Hugh MacDonald, have been lyrical in their praise of these performances, which include the world premiere recording of the Messe solennelle.
Sound in 24 bits-96kHz especially for the Philips 50 series.
