It's a huge orchestra, 120 singers and 4 solistes.

You heard the firts part the accompagnato.
Stereo :
ORTF couple : 2 schoeps mk4, distant of the conductor 2 m,the hight is 1m50.
On the violin and the cello there is a close-mike AKG451. Also a close mike KM84 on the double-bass. The clavecin has a mkh40 close-mike.

I've try several thing and finally chose a ORTF.
It's a multitrack recording.

It's the natural reverberation of this church.
