Query: Blach!

Why so much praise?? I listened to this after so many other listenings of others and have to say that this version is truly awful. The brisk speeds and lightness are totally unsuitable for the Mass in B.There is no sense of cosmic grandeur and deep religiosity in Gradiner's version. Truly dissapointing :(Sure, some of the playing and singing is nice...but c'mon, period instruments and forces simply don't work and don't cut it for Bach's Mass in B.For don't take my word for it, compare the Gardiner to other truly Great interpretations like Richter, Enescu, early Karajan, Scherchen, Guilini, Munchinger, and of course...Klemperer.Gardiner is no match for these guys, his rendition is like a little stream along side a mighty ocean!
