composed by George Frederick Handel

Many early music performers strive to re-create the style and expressions of a certain period, working within a consensus of opinions on what constitutes authentic performance practice.

performed by Parley of Instruments, Peter Holman (organ), New College Choir, Oxford (choir, chorus), Edward Higginbottom (conductor)
composed by Matthew Locke

On July 5, 1672, antiquarian and diarist Anthony à Wood noted in his diary, "Encaenia: excellent musick."

composed by Giovanni Pergolesi

This Erato release attempts to introduce the listener to various aspects, some perhaps neglected, of Pergolesi's work. Such an attempt would be quite laudable, Pergolesi mainly being known for his Stabat Mater and the brilliant intermezzo La serva padrona, were not Pergolesi: Marian Vespers, a random sequence of disparate vocal and instrumental ...

The Elgar Experience (2007) more music like this

performed by Arto Noras (cello), BBC Symphony Orchestra & Chorus (choir, chorus), New College Choir, Oxford (choir, chorus)
composed by Edward Elgar

To be fair, this double-disc sampler from Warner provides a generous introduction to the music of Edward Elgar, but its program includes too many excerpts to be a fully satisfying survey. One can be grateful that the beloved Enigma Variations and the popular Introduction and Allegro for strings survived complete, and that several short but famous ...

composed by Francis Poulenc, Olivier Messiaen, Pierre Villette

The buyer seeking an overview of Francis Poulenc's music and of its place in its own time would be disappointed upon purchasing this disc, despite its title of Poulenc and His Contemporaries. The program focuses on one specific part of his career: the religious choral music, mostly a cappella, that he wrote later in life, after a experiencing a ...
