0ur opinion: 's Best of 1998:Monteverdi's Vespers is a monumental collection of musical settings of liturgical texts for a service in honor of the Virgin. lt presents a cornucopia of styles, stretching from traditional plainchant to a forward-looking, innovative aesthetic, and bridges the gap between the Renaissance and the beginnings of Baroque musical language. William Christie leads a beautifully sculpted, majestic performance that is responsive to this stylistic profusion but also makes a case for underlying structural cohesion. The instrumental and ...
