Stunning music.. Poor soloists, Oct 19 2007
By Eva Van Der Laan "sacred music collector" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Requiem & Dies Irae (Audio CD)
I disagree with the preceeding reviewer for being so hard on Tactus. I'm grateful to be able to get to known this magnificent music even if it is not a professional rendition. The mass shows the composer's skill in variety of sacred music technics. Contrapunctal sections are well done by a young choir with children sopranos? Orchestra Barocca di Cremona (on periods instruments) is playing quite good. The minus point are soloists (with exception of the tenor) whose lack of professionalism regarding early music genre is obvious. Coloratura aria sung in a very slow tempo is not a nice listening experience. Those poor soloist are responsible for much too slow tempi of some sections that break the continuity of the music. This is a LIVE RECORDING and the only one of this works so far. I have listened to it many times and every time ,using the power of imagination, enjoyed it even more.

Massacre of a requiem, July 16 2005
By Frederic Bourgeois - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Requiem & Dies Irae (Audio CD)
That Requiem is a masterpiece. Luchesi does deserve to be discovered and recorded. Alas! the very same people who pioneer in that noble challenge condemn these "new" composers to oblivion by providing us with a recording so lame that I consider it an insult to any music lover to merely dare putting such a horror on the market. The orchestra is barely OK and the soloists passable. The choir however is the worst I ever heard. The amateur choir of the church around the corner does a much better job!Don't waste a penny on that disc! I wish I could give it a zero star!
Listmania!
