"Recording of the week: After the scholars have put their pens down, the crucial question is of course whether the result is a musically satisfying response to the text. Could there ever be any doubt? Savall is no dusty academic disconnected from musical reality; he knows exactly what he's doing, building thoughtfully on others' work to create something coherent and convincing, and his team of musicians communicate his intention magnificently".

"Here is a live account ... of a reconstruction by Alexander Grychtolik and conductor Jordi Savall ... The result is broadly convincing. David Szigetvári's Evangelist articulates text intelligently. Marta Mathéu's pure soprano and Raffaele Pé's suave countertenor are both assets ... The orchestra offers an apt selection of colours, the choir is impressive and there's a strong showing from the children's choir. Savall himself maintains a keen sense of forward motion".

"Unter der Leitung von Jordi Savall spielt Le Concert des Nations beherzt auf. Der Chor ... Sein Klang ist frisch und keineswegs ein akademischer, sondern eher natürlicher, beinahe volkstümlicher, was den sehr emotionalen Chorälen der Passion durchaus entspricht".

"The choir of 25 (including children on the upper parts) and Le Concert des Nations produce a vivid performance in which emotional directness is paramount. David Szigetvári is a capable Evangelist ... although Konstantin Wolff's gritty Christus is closer to a roaring Wotan than the compassionate redeemer of the world".
