3 out of 5 stars 5* for In Convertendo & Documentary, 0* for the rest. .......2007-02-13

To be charitable, I shall start with saying that the performance of the Grand Motet In Convertendo is up the the usual standard of excellence one associates with William Christie. As a bonus comes a comprehensive - as far as a DVD in concerned - documentary, despite the silly chit-chat between two surplus-to-requirement Deus ex Machina characters. Otherwise - very poor general presentation - no reference to the vocal Soloists in the Motet - either in the booklet, or in the Biographies bonus on the DVD. If the Soloists are good enough for W Christie, they should be good enough for Opus Arte to say something about them. This is disrespect to the Artists, and disregard where the consumer [probably not The Consumer to this label] is concerned. Nor is there a mention of the source of the text, taken from the book Psalms. The three instrumental pieces would have been perfect on a CD, when one cannot notice that the performers do not seem to have much fun participating in the playing [for a model of sheer fun in playing - and how much it enhances the viewer's pleasure - see DVD of Argerich & the late Economou playing Mozart]. Thanks Christie et al, try harder - much harder - Opus Arte.
