Brian Wilson
Handel: Messiah (Hyperion)
(Déjà Review) A middle-of-the-road performance which just about presses all the right buttons [BW]
Handel: Acis and Galatea (Linn)
A strong contender for the Recording of the Year [BW]
Handel & Haydn: Piano Works (Hyperion)
(Déjà Review) Even harpsichord lovers will appreciate the Handel [BW]
Beethoven: Septet & Serendade (Nimbus)
(Déjà Review) Fine performances of Beethoven at his most delightful [BW]
Bach: Violin Concerti (Hyperion Helios)
(Déjà Review) Eminently sane performances, well recorded, at a very reasonable price [BW]
Brendel plays Mozart in Vienna (Alto)
(Déjà Review) A splendid reminder of early Brendel, still sounding very well [BW]
North Italian Baroque Violin Concertos (Avie)
(Déjà Review) Buy the CD or the download, but get this recording somehow [BW]
Bach: Organ Works Volume 8 (Challenge Classics)
(Déjà Review) Those who like big-sounding Bach will enjoy this more than those who expect a lighter touch [BW]
Bach: Brandenburg Concerti (Avie)
(Déjà Review) All the benefits of period performance without the tears [BW]
Purcell: Songs (Hyperion Helios)
(Déjà Review) Hard to imagine this music better interpreted [bw]
Gabriel’s Greeting (Hyperion)
(Déjà Review) A Christmas recording with a difference [BW]
Bach: The Well-tempered Clavier Book II (Erato)
(Déjà Review) The set deserves the strongest recommendation, unless one prefers the piano [BW]
Vaughan Williams: Hodie (Naxos)
(Déjà Review) Though not quite ideal in the popular Fantasia, this version of Hodie brings to life a work which I had previously written off as one of RVW’s few failures [BW]
CPE Bach: Complete Keyboard Concertos Vol. 16 (BIS)
(Déjà Review) The latest volume in this epic project is as good a place as any to start and may be approached with confidence [BW]
Handel: Giulio Cesare (Harmonia Mundi)
Probably the best DVD version and one of the best in any format [BW]
Dufay: Music for St Anthony of Padua (Hyperion)
(Déjà Review) Superlative performances, well recorded, of attractive music: another excellent Helios reissue [BW]
