Handel - Chandos Anthems Nos 7, 9 & 11a

Impressive results all round. A well-drilled chorus and Layton and the Academy musicians lovingly etching some of the most attractive counterpoint from the scores. Just one problem – only three of the Chandos Anthems are here and it’s a while since there was a recording of this kind of quality of them. So I hope it turns out to be volume one, even if it doesn’t say so. It’s a new release from Hyperion.
