One of the most significant challenges facing young French composers in the 19th century was to compete for the Prix de Rome, not only for the considerable prize money and residency in Rome, but more importantly for the recognition it granted. Camille Saint-Saëns competed for the prize twice, in 1852 with his youthful cantata, Le Retour de Virginie, and in 1864 with his nearly operatic setting of Ivanhoé. Though he didn't win in either year, Saint-Saëns had already achieved success between his Roman efforts and won prestige for his increasingly progressive works, which were strongly influenced by Liszt and Wagner and therefore quite antithetical to the conservative leanings of the prize committee. This album by Hervé Niquet and the Brussels Philharmonic revives both works, and offers the... Less

Giovanni Battista Pergolesi had a tragically short career, living just 26 years and producing most of his mature works over a period of about five years. This compilation of three previously released CDs of performances conducted by Claudio Abbado offers a generous introduction to some of the composer's most popular sacred choral works, plus his Violin Concerto in B flat major. The most familiar and substantial work is the 40-minute Stabat Mater for soprano, alto, and orchestra, which was the most frequently published composition of the 18th century. It is also Pergolesi's most frequently performed and recorded sacred piece, and there is no lack of very fine recorded versions. This one, featuring soprano Rachel Harnisch and contralto Sara Mingardo makes a splendid introduction to the work... Less

The Sixteen's compilation of three of its Christmas albums offers a generous and wide selection of seasonal music. The diversity of performance practices mastered by the English mixed ensemble, founded and conducted by Harry Christophers, shows that it has the stylistic range to persuasively put across repertoire from the medieval to the contemporary to traditional, old-fashioned carols. The medieval carols and songs from this album, Christus Natus Est: An Early English Christmas, have an infectious, rustic buoyancy that's completely appropriate, while the Renaissance motets from the same album are sung with absolute purity and precision. In Britten's Ceremony of Carols, from the album Hodie: An English Christmas Collection, the female sopranos and mixed altos do such a good job of... Less

Apart from Mendelssohn's Elijah and Paulus, Brahms' German Requiem, and Beethoven's Missa Solemnis, the undisputed champ among nineteenth century oratorios is Franz Liszt's gigantic Christus. Composed in just four years between 1859 and 1863 on an unwieldy libretto by Princess Carolyne von Sayn- Wittgenstein, Christus may have been intended as Liszt's answer to Handel's Messiah, and at least in length -- three hours -- it is certainly a comparable effort. Christus, like nearly all of Liszt's music that does not involve the piano, has never caught on in any measure comparable to the works of Mendelssohn, Beethoven, Brahms, or Handel mentioned above. Nevertheless, Christus is occasionally revived, and it should be, because Liszt put some of the very best of himself into this composition... Less
