The selections on this excellent disc are taken from his output during that period, hence the name, “The Italian Album.” Although all ofthe selections are performed on period instruments, there’s none of the harshness or “thinness” sometimes associated with historical performances. The vocalists are superb; soprano Galina Knysh, who most often gets the spotlight, has a purity of tone and range that are equally impressive and thrilling to hear
– she hits the really extended notes effortlessly. Most of the works here have a real chamber feel to them, but when the combined forces of choirs, orchestra and soloists join together on the finale, it’s both passionate and majestic. As with the Bach disc noted above, every aspect of the sound presentation is superb, and bodes well for Caro Mitis. Very highly recommended.
