Gloria in D major, RV 589 isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. This is the first studio album from Vivaldi, Antonio since bad diagnosis in 1976. Self-described as Classical with lots of words, Vivaldi, Antonio comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. This album is in perfect progression from Vivaldi, Antonio!
Et in terra pax (The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) is beautiful, yet underrated track. |titile| is the kind of record that makes you remember why music can be so addictive. Graias agimus tibi (The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) to me is the best you can get from Vivaldi, Antonio. Propter magnam gloriam (The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) is new, fresh, and hypnotizing. Domine Deus (soprano) (Judith Nelson - soprano, The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) is astounding. Domine Fili unigenite (The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) is a bit different from Vivaldi, Antonio stereotypical stuff. Domine Deus, Agnus Dei (contralto, chorus) is pretty funky and mellow. I love the melodic melody of Qui tollis peccata mundi (The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) and to this day it makes me feel good. Once you hear Qui sedes (contralto) (Carolyn Watkinson - contralto, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston), you will listen to it over and over. Quoniam tu solus Sanctus (The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. Voice and instruments in Cum Sancto Spiritu (The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, The Academy of Ancient Music.con. Simon Preston) complement each other.
