"Natürlich lohnt sich das Kennenlernen beider Kompositionen, auch wenn Prandi ein wenig zu zackig musizieren lässt. Das betrifft sowohl dynamische Kontraste, die nicht immer der Partitur entsprechen, als auch Tempi, die ebenfalls Extreme ausloten. Die Solistinnen kommen damit gut zurecht, der Chor flüchtet sich hin und wieder in zu grosse Lautstärken".

"While his Stabat Mater and Magnificat are relatively well-known, there are other sacred works which, if this CD is anything to go by, are equally fine and deserve hearing ... Backed by the musicological work of Milan's Centro Studi Pergolesi, Giulio Prandi and his excellent forces offer a stylish reading of this unfamiliar music, with crisp string playing, a lively choral sound and excellent soloists. They are equally effective in the Marian motet Dignes laudes resonemus, which structurally resembles the more familiar Stabat Mater. Scored for double five-voice chorus and a double string orchestra, oboes and a pair of trumpets, it is an impressive work. Worth investigating".

"Here are two premiere recording of large-scale sacred works that are apparently the real deal. The Mass in D major seems to have been reworked ... make an ideal vehicle for the impressively disciplined Ghislieri Chorus and Orchestra ... Giulio Prandi's full-blooded handling of fulsome choral passages ... and deft balance of gracefulness and vigour ... The elaborate Marian motet Dignas laudes resonemus exists in a few sources ... The range of dynamism, textures and idioms constitutes a revelatory new perspective on Pergolesi's qualities".
