"Why present just Handel's Coronation Anthems for King George II when you can present the whole Coronation?" seems to be the proposition that underlies this two-disc set, entitled The Coronation of King George II, 1727. And, thrillingly performed by Robert King directing the King's Consort and the Choir of the King's Consort, there seems no good ...

Soprano Carolyn Sampson looks a little surprised to be featured on the front cover of Hyperion's Mozart: Exsultate Jubilate! With the notable exception of its redoubtable Hyperion Schubert Lieder Edition, Hyperion seldom makes use of artist images on the front cover, preferring instead to match a period artwork to the musical content inside.

composed by Claudio Monteverdi

Claudio Monteverdi's sacred music has been ripe for a top-notch complete traversal such as it is now receiving from the King's Consort and conductor Robert King. As choirmaster of St. Mark's Cathedral in Venice for the last 30 years of his life, Monteverdi wrote a lot of sacred music and explored many of the myriad sonic configurations possible in ...

composed by Antonio Vivaldi

Antonio Vivaldi is the all-time champ among composers of cello concertos; although not all of the concertos accredited to him are absolutely regarded as authentic, his believed total of 28 is the highest number of cello concertos written by any one composer. The first among them, namely Cello concerto in G minor, RV 416, and Cello concerto in A ...

composed by Johann Sebastian Bach

As Robert King acknowledges in his introduction to this recording, J.S. Bach most likely never heard his Mass in B minor performed in its entirety. Bach did, however, lay out his conception of the forces required to perform it in a letter to the Leipzig city council in 1730: at least 20 instrumental players and at least 20 singers. King has used ...

composed by Claudio Monteverdi

One might have thought Robert King had no worlds left to conquer. After all, he had already recorded all the sacred choral works of Vivaldi along with much of the choral music of Bach, Handel, Telemann, and Schütz in the '80s and '90s. But when King turned his attention to the sacred music of Monteverdi in the early years of the third millennium, ...
