Lutheran masses I

"Vurdering: Ugens album" - "Bach skrev sine fire små messer, mens han tjente til dagen og vejen i Leipzig i slutningen af 1730'erne ... Suzuki er en mester i genren ... Solisterne er glimrende ... Få kolleger kommer op på siden af Masaaki Suzuki og Bach Collegium Japan, når det handler om at få hjerte og hjerne til at mødes med teknisk mesterskab i så afsindigt velklingede musikalske himmerigsmundfulde som her".

"The freshness, agility and precision of the performances, animated by Christophers's buoyant direction, are a constant pleasure".

"Suzuki's solo 'A team' are out in force and generally deliver excellent and communicative quasi-arias ... The choruses are perhaps a touch less well-heeled and defined than usual, in both consistency and balance, but Collegium Musicum Japan compellingly advocate both Masses as well as the festive Kyrie and Sanctus settings".
