  2. Após o primeiro teste de audição só posso escrever: uma experiência esmagadora é esta interpretação de René Jacobs!
    Com a ajuda de uma orquestra e de um coro de elenco generoso, quase obtemos um som sinfónico - na minha opinião absolutamente apropriado para este trabalho - e isto dá à música uma plasticidade quase cénica.
    Mas também a boa qualidade da técnica de gravação conduz, em suma, a um resultado quase perfeito, muito obrigado por esta sugestão melodiosa!
