not least I like the trumpets here. In many baroque ensembles with 'authentic' interpretation especially the trumpets are often a problem. I think one of the reasons is that they did here a smart thing to add sth like ventiles that are normally - as far as I know - not part of old trumpets, but came later in history. but good to be not dogmatic 'historic' :o)
not to forget smaller ensembles like Tafelmusik with an american female conducter (forgot the name, sorry) There are great recordings with the 6 late masses of Haydn (head conducter is Bruno Weil, also makig good his job there and also the choir)
This is simply fabulous! Such a wonderful balance between orchestra, soloist, and chorus. I want the entire performance on DVD, a nice bottle of wine and no phone calls!
Please, please, only post criticisms if you have conducted better performances. And also post your performances to back up your comments.

Harnoncourt was indeed an icebreaker, but not the only one, and also others had similar ideas in that times

For what it is worth, this group is the toast of New York city right now.

Absolutely horrible sound quality. Better not to post something like this in case of such a magnificent music ...
