Handel in the Wind - The Messiah and other Masterworks
Review | 'Red Priest are in an exhilarating class of its own.' BBC Music Magazine, August 2015 'Red Priest albums are always stylish, entertaining and controversial, and this one is no exception.' Early Music Journal, May 2015 “First, the punning title and then the trademark artwork … yes, Red Priest is back. I’ve reviewed a slew of the discs and invariably make the point that behind the arrangements, artwork and zany presentation sits real musical accomplishment. You can only truly successfully take liberties when you’ve mastered your instrument.” Jonathan Woolf, musicweb-international.com 'Red Priest theatrically wear fine costumes and include interesting choreography into what some may see as a stuffy musical genre urgently in need of fun, humour and imagination. They’re vibrant and rhythmical, playing from memory and wandering stages freely. There’s a sense of immediacy to their latest album Handel In The Wind and the occasional moment of exquisite beauty.' AAA Music 'With bright, forward recording to match the playing, it’s well worth adding to any Red Priest collection. If you are not yet a convert, it would be as good a place as any to start.'
