This has by far the one of the most powerful orchestrated sounds to it that I've ever heard. We have got to get this in here  . Anyone who's heard this would agree.

Have sung it several years ago, but I would suggest another recording.
Gardiner may be good with Bach etc., but Verdi?
I'd really recommend the record with Carlo Maria Giulini from EMI CLASSICS, can't find a link yet.
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Soprano
Christa Ludwig, Mezzo
Nicolai Gedda, Tenor
Nicolai Ghiaurov, Bass
Philharmonia Chorus & Orchestra
Carlo Maria Giulini, conductor

Well, I can't say I like yours any more than mine but it seems like yours has superior sound quality. I'll take either one.

As long as this piece gets added, it shouldn't bother too much which version we get
I totally agree with you on that, wlz.
The good thing in Vienna is that there are 2-3 shops which are specialized in every kind of classical records and therefore are able to tell you which records are worth buying or which have a better sound quality etc.
I'm just trying to show some good alternatives.
Anyway, let's get this Verdi!

Requiems are the Doom Metal of Classical Music. I'm a doomster, then add requiems always!
