Awards and reviews
February 2018
Blomstedt is never bent on point-scoring didacticism, His is a truthful account; prayerful, reverential, intent on welding the disparate movements into a caressing over-arching entity… Among the soloists Christina Landshamer and Elisabeth Kulman enthral.
February 2018
Blomstedt lays a light, smooth plaster over the stylistic distinctions between each movement of the Missa proper…Best of the soloists is Elisabeth Kulman, whose refined breadth of line and lightly worn dignity raises her contributions to another level…With an Agnus Dei of simple, unforced beauty, Kulman sets the seal on an account of solid virtues but intermittent insights.
