The tolling qui tollis peccata mundi in the Agnus Dei is very affecting. The F minor Mass is a volcanic eruption of faith, truly heaven-storming, an undisputed masterpiece, and rightly known as the greatest Mass since Beethoven's Missa solemnis. It is overwhelming. The same motif returns at the Et expecto, making it musically as clear as can be that it is in Christ's resurrection we are to share. Both Jochum and Best are brilliant in the three Masses and should leave any listener in ecstasy.
Close comparison does reveal some significant differences.
In general Best urges the music on with faster tempos. Best is quicker, fresher, and vocally brighter. The Hyperion recording perspective favors the chorus and leaves orchestral details a bit in the background. The sheer beauty of the singing is staggering. The DG sound perspective is better balanced and, surprisingly, given the age of the recordings, reveals far more orchestral detail and impact.
