About

It was not in doubt that Bernstein would respond vividly and warmly to its dramatic and emotional qualities ... He has wonderful support from the Westminster Choir who respond unfailingly and remain fresh and untiring. Their soft singing is beautiful ... Bernstein has also an excellent solo quartet: Lewis ...some beautiful singing ... Borg's dark bass a solid foundation ... fine tone and musicianship of Carol Smith. Eileen Farrell is a tower of strength. Her glorious voice, splendid attack and impeccable intonation give constant pleasure. Let me here praise the exquisite playing of John Corigliano and the New York Philharmonic. Bernstein ... and the fine forces which he has inspired, have given us here a most musical, deeply felt and, where applicable, thrilling performance of the Missa Solemnis” - Gramophone
