Francesco Durante, Magnificat in B Major, Part #1, Moscow Oratorio, conductor-Alexander Tsaliuk,Musica Viva Chamber Symphony Orchestra, soloists: Yana Ivanilova, Irina Aganezova, Georgy Faradzhev, Vladimir Ognev, Live recording at the Gnessin Academy of Music, Moscow, 2005.
Opening movement is a bit heavy for my taste. I prefer it lighter and faster, but there's no disputing the quality of the singers and orchestra.

To be correct, Magnificat is in B flat major (2 flats) and not B major (5 sharps)...
