You do not seem to be typical Vesperae listeners
In the meantime, I have seen, there is a recording by Barbara Hendriks and St. Martin in the Fields... I believe, this is not a bad choice in that matter.

In the meantime I can recommend Handel's Carmelite Vespers by Andrew Parrott, the Taverner Choir and Players. Virgin Veritas label!Originally posted by Pastorali:

The one I've got is coupled with the Coronation Mass and is by Christopher Hogwood and the Academy of Ancient Music, with soprano Emma Kirkby (L'Oiseaux Lyre). Worth a listen for the inclusion of an Epistle Sonata - a brilliant miniature symphony - just 3 minutes but absolutely packed with ideas!Comment
