The list of solid performances of Handel's Messiah, HWV 56, from outside Britain is growing longer, and this one, released in 2020 just in time for sacred music season, is a case in point. All four soloists and the conductor are indeed anglophones, and they offer much to enjoy. Veteran baritone Roderick Williams is in fine voice, and the silvery soprano of Julia Doyle has a classic Handelian sound with a nice bloom at the top, but Messiah succeeds or fails on its chorus, and the work of the RIAS Kammerchor is as impressive as that of the soloists. It would be a tall order for any native speaker of English to detect any hint of an accent, and better still, the group articulates the text well and seems to respond to what is being sung in the famous choruses like "For unto us a child is born" and "Hallelujah." The choir has 20 members, and the stated goal of the recording is to return Messiah to its original more intimate dimensions. Conductor Justin Doyle overdoes it a bit here; the original Dublin performance of Messiah featured 32 singers, although the present complement may have been closer to those of later London performances. However, the 20 singers have a big sound, and, in general, Doyle's forces are a flexible and well-balanced group. The historical instruments of the Akademie für alte Musik Berlin also add sharpness in the trumpets and drums. Listeners new to historical performance will find a satisfying and friendly instance of it here.

Presentación del Álbum

The list of solid performances of Handel's Messiah, HWV 56, from outside Britain is growing longer, and this one, released in 2020 just in time for sacred music season, is a case in point. All four soloists and the conductor are indeed anglophones, and they offer much to enjoy. Veteran baritone Roderick Williams is in fine voice, and the silvery soprano of Julia Doyle has a classic Handelian sound with a nice bloom at the top, but Messiah succeeds or fails on its chorus, and the work of the RIAS Kammerchor is as impressive as that of the soloists. It would be a tall order for any native speaker of English to detect any hint of an accent, and better still, the group articulates the text well and seems to respond to what is being sung in the famous choruses like "For unto us a child is born" and "Hallelujah." The choir has 20 members, and the stated goal of the recording is to return Messiah to its original more intimate dimensions. Conductor Justin Doyle overdoes it a bit here; the original Dublin performance of Messiah featured 32 singers, although the present complement may have been closer to those of later London performances. However, the 20 singers have a big sound, and, in general, Doyle's forces are a flexible and well-balanced group. The historical instruments of the Akademie für alte Musik Berlin also add sharpness in the trumpets and drums. Listeners new to historical performance will find a satisfying and friendly instance of it here.
