1CD Standard Jewel Case It is an album that can be evaluated as the best performance, and the conductor's delicate and elegant interpretation is phenomenal.

Beethoven’s monumental Missa Solemnis is a work of confounding complexity and taxing vocal writing that borders on the criminal. . . this performance provides robust thrills and orchestral spirituality... Highly Recommended!
