Had heard the advertising of those recording on NDR Kultur. Although I had a picture of where, but also wanted to even hear a different version. This I liked, all (!) I found good soloists, the tenor is not (!) To operatic. The choruses were sung accurately, but this is to be expected on a salable CD also. Just because I've often sung as a chorus girl, the WO, naturally formed from listening preferences. I was this recording still enjoy to the fullest, even (or especially) if a different interpretation of the pieces was there. I highly recommend this recording very much!
