Review Perotin / Hilliard Ensemble:It would be impossible adequately to describe the inherent haunting beauty of Pérotin's music, or to fully detail its far-reaching influence in latter-12th-century France. The opening "Viderunt omnes" is a perfect illustration of the surprising vitality and highly charged sense of forward motion that can be obtained with relatively simple rhythmic impulses and harmonic devices. The male voices of the Hilliard Ensemble generate an electrifying resonance that vibrates everything in the room that's not solid or nailed down. You can literally feel this music, ringing with natural harmonics and set to body-moving rhythms. Yes, it's religious music, intended for lofty cathedral spaces; but it moves, and it's moving, and this recording gives it to you full blast. -David Vernier.

Review Vivaldi - Gloria; Beatus vir / Naxos:Besides hundreds of concertos and 80 operas, Vivaldi wrote a considerable amount of church music, including two settings of the Gloria, both in D. The second, RV589, is generally the best known, and is the one featured on this recording. Though its predecessor, RV588, contains some equally fine writing, and the two are available together with the Beatus Vir on an excellent Double Decca anthology. Jeremy Summerly has long specialised in early choral music, and the Schola Cantorum, Oxford University's longest running chamber choir, responds with singing of the uttermost clarity, the acoustic of St. Peter's Church, Hale, providing a perfectly apposite setting. The result is certainly a recording to stand beside Hyperion's series of Vivaldi's complete sacred music. Both the Gloria and the Beatus Vir are on a grand scale, allowing the composer to produce settings of great coherence and formal elegance, whilst giving free reign to his unparalleled gifts of melodic invention. The composer always wrote particularly well for soprano voice, and here Anna Crookes, Jayne Whitaker and Carys-Anne Lane offer performances such beauty as make this a very fine addition to the Vivaldi catalogue indeed. -Gary S. Dalkin.
