HiFiVision 12/94: »Ein Messias der Spitzenklasse. Hervorragende Aufnahmen des Händelschen Meisterwerks.«
stereoplay 12/94: »Ein Festgenuss ohne Reue. Christie bündelt die in der Tat blühenden Künste seiner Solisten und Kollektive. Fromm sein wird hier zur Sinnenfreude - auch dank der fabelhaften Klangtechnik.«
FonoForum 12/94: »Eine überaus lohnende Aufnahme.«
