[Chailly’s] approach is characteristically thoughtful. There’s a measured treatment of the Veni Creator Spiritus hymn, which makes it a more-than-usually convincing prelude to the setting of the final scene of Goethe’s Faust in the second part, in which he takes immense care over every texture and judges the mounting drama perfectly. As you would expect from a handpicked band, the orchestral playing is consistently glorious. The contribution of the combined choirs is authoritative and there is a fine team of soloists, in which the soprano Juliane Banse, the contralto Sara Mingardo and the tenor Andreas Schager stand out.
