Bach: Magnificat; Cantata, BWV 21 (1989) more music like this

performed by Christoph Prégardien (tenor), Greta de Reyghere (soprano), La Petite Bande, Peter Lika (bass), Rene Jacobs (alto), Nederlands Kamerkoor (choir, chorus), Sigiswald Kuijken (conductor)
composed by Johann Sebastian Bach

There are many beautiful things about these recordings of Bach's Magnificat and Ich hatte viel Bekümmernis Cantata, but beauty isn't really the ultimate point. With Sigiswald Kuijken leading four totally dedicated soloists plus La Petite Bande, truth is the point, the kind of incontrovertible, unrelenting, and unyielding truth that wakes you up in ...

composed by Franz Schubert

Considering that Schubert himself didn't really believe in the texts he was setting, it's remarkable how credible so much of his sacred music is. But considering that Schubert himself was probably the greatest melodist of all the great composers, it's equally remarkable how forgettable so much of his sacred music is. Even in these dedicated and ...

composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

Given the fame of the event involved, the sparsity of recordings reconstructing it is surprising. This double-disc set presents the music the audience would have heard on May 7, 1824, when a Beethoven "Akademie," really more of a benefit concert for the composer himself, was held in Vienna. The concert included the world premiere of the Symphony ...

composed by Heinrich Schütz

Belgian conductor Philippe Herreweghe founded the vocal ensemble La Chapelle Royale in 1977 with a primary focus on music of the French Baroque, but the group has since branched into the repertoires of other countries and eras. In this release, the group sings Heinrich Schütz's three-movement Musikalische Exequien (Musical Funeral Rites) of 1635, ...

Recorded in 1991 -- and not a clue is given in the booklet about the 17-year lag between the recording and its release in 2008 -- this version of Haydn's oratorio Die Jahreszeiten (The Seasons) gave a good indication of the direction in which historical-performance veteran Roger Norrington's career would move over the next decade or so. The ...
