...the Hilliard's one-voice-to-a-part reading of Bach's Cantata No. 4 is about as gorgeous, moving, and transparent a performance as you'll ever hear. Webern's arrangement of the fugue for six voices from Bach's Musical Offering (recorded at the start and end of the CD) is also beautifully played, this time by the Münchener Kammerorchester, and it is, indeed, a wonderful, rich arrangement...Music this well-played needs no excuse or relationship to anything..
Across the Crystal Sea is pure bliss, allowing the listener to escape into a world of sumptuous and immaculate music.
