Early Music America Reviews Nicholas McGegan's New Recording of Bach's Mass in B Minor with Cantata Collective
"The Cantata Collective’s choral forces shine in their expressive use of color and dynamic shading in the long arching lines of “Et incarnatus est” and “Crucifixus” and are able to hold their own in “Et resurrexit” — due, in part, to McGegan’s careful balancing and phrasing.... The “Dona nobis pacem” is as ideally performed as the preceding aria, benefiting from an understated beginning that is carefully paced by McGegan to a triumphant end....As the Cantata Collective continues its journey, some other biggies are in the works: the Matthew-Passion, Magnificat, and the Easter Oratorio. I look forward to more.”
