7. Early Winner: A New Venetian Coronation - Gabrieli Consort & Players / Paul McCreesh
What the judges said: “While the music of Giovanni Gabrieli and his uncle Andrea is always welcome in the catalogue, there are very few recordings that put it in its full liturgical context in this way – not just with works of Hassler, Bendinelli and Gussago, not just the chants, but the whole atmosphere, with crowd noise, church bells, drums and fanfares.”
