This goes right to the top of my Best of 2014 list. Perfection!!

Bravo, Pentatone!!

Glad to see many members here have recommended this one. Usually.. early music SACDs (besides Bach) only get 2 or 3 recommendations. I assume the person who gave this one a negative vote simply didn't like the music. Oh well, you can't please everyone. ;-)

Nice review, Graham!!

Here are a few video clips of the recording sessions:

An interesting new offering, but don't forget Antiphonal Music of Gabrieli if you don't have it already. I am very glad to see it still 'in print'.

Since it's only stereo, it pretty much kills the "antiphonal" effect!

All that reverberation, absolutely delicious, just ordered it.

Do you have a multi-channel system? That recording is pretty much the last word in surround sound!

No, I do not have a MC system, but somehow recordings made in very reverberant spaces do add that extra 3D effect that is missing from concert hall recordings when reproduced in stereo, excessive reverberation does not muddy up the sound on my system.
