Awards and reviews
July 2007
Some of the greatest attractions of Haydn's oratorio lie in its orchestral depictions of natural phenomena… As played here by the Salzburg Mozarteum Orchestra, and also recorded with exemplary clarity and definition, such descriptive touches come over splendidly, exhibiting particular vividness

This inspiring new Creation deserves a place alongside Harnoncourt (occasionally perverse but always thought-provoking), Gardiner (magnificent except for Sylvia McNair's coyly winsome Gabriel) and Spering (a terrific Naxon bargain). Choice may well be clinched by the soloists. For my money Bolton's trio are the best of all recent versions.
