Performance:  Sonics (S):
The soundtrack to the movie on Jean-Baptiste Lully paints a vivid sonic picture of his lifetime. The interpretations are as powerful and rhythmically precise as one is used to hear from Musica Antiqua Köln. Compared to French baroque ensembles their approach to the music is less charming, but director Reinhard Goebel senses Lully's music as more on the crude side.
Compared to the CD version the double SACD reveals more detail and room ambiance - apparently it is being deleted soon. Contents of both are identical - in the early days of SACD manufacturers were cautious about playing time of hybrid discs.
