Zelenka’s almost painterly work with instrumental valeres and strong color and light contrasts is more reminiscent of Handel than Bach; compositionally, however, it is completely original. The masterful baroque altarpiece has the same effect on the listener as it does on the viewer when viewed up close: it floats in the air, but does not move away from the viewer or the listener. (…) The reconstruction for the purposes of the current recording was carried out by Václav Luks on the basis of existing materials. Its result is compact, the recording is excellent.
