Back in the year 2000 the Monteverdi Choir, the English Baroque Soloists and Sir John Eliot Gardiner made their celebrated year-long Bach pilgrimage, during which time they performed all one hundred
and ninety-eight of J.S. Bach's sacred cantatas in more than sixty churches throughout Europe to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the composer’s death. They clearly enjoyed their pilgrimage idea as four years later they were at it again - albeit on a much smaller scale - when they spent a month travelling through France and Spain following the centuries-old route to the shrine of Santiago de Compostela where the remains of St James are said to reside. They performed numerous concerts along the way and made a recording which although previously issued by Universal Spain is re-released today on Sir John Eliot Gardiner's own label SDG.
