composed by Johann Sebastian Bach

As collections of Bach's cantatas go, the three joined together on this disc are more than acceptable.

composed by Heinrich August Marschner

Heinrich Marschner's 1828 opera Der Vampyr is a significant work that has never really gotten a decent studio recording that is faithful to the original piece. The 1992 Virgin Classics offering, based on a Janet Street-Porter English-language BBC television production, heavily revised and "hipped up" the original libretto to make it more palatable ...
