In the complete works of Heinrich Schutz, performed by the Dresdner Kammerchor under the direction of Hans-Christoph Rademann and produced by Carus, the fifth installment presents the Cantiones Sacrae. In 1625 during the Thirty Years War, Schutz published this collction as his opus 4. In the 40 Latin motets he used texts from the prayer book of Andreas Musculus, which is based on psalms and verses from the Song of Songs, as well as texts from the Gospels, devotional texts and various prayers. “At their habitual best, these are very enjoyable performances, considered and light on their feet; but where quicksilver changes of expression or colour are required...the results are mixed.” Gramophone Magazine, April 2013 | | | (also available to download from $21.00) | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Featuring choral music for the Christmas season from the early Baroque era, the music is sung in Spanish, Latin, English and German.

David Hurley (countertenor), Timothy Wayne-Wright (countertenor), Paul Phoenix (tenor), Christopher Bruerton (baritone), Christopher Gabbitas (baritone) & Jonathan Howard (bass) The King’s Singers GRAMMY® Award winners in 2009, The King’s Singers are one of the world’s most celebrated ensembles. Their programming concept in this disc is unique: built upon the individual clauses of The Lord’s Prayer, beginning and ending in plainchant, it ranges over the centuries to explore the spiritually charged text. Chant is at the heart of the programme, and each composer’s setting illuminates the others, shedding rich interpretative light on the poetic and devotional aspects of the prayer. One of the world’s most celebrated ensembles, The King’s Singers have a packed schedule of concerts, recordings, media and education work that spans the globe. Championing the work of both young and established composers, they are instantly recognisable for their spot-on intonation, impeccable vocal blend, flawless articulation of the text and incisive timing. They are also consummate entertainers: a class act with a delightfully British wit. “There are few vocal ensembles that can work up a concept album like The King's Singers, and this somewhat disparate collection of sacred pieces blossoms into something rather wonderful...The performances have all the panache that we associate with this group” BBC Music Magazine, December 2012 ***** “what a rewarding CD this is, gloriously sung and perfectly recorded.” Gramophone Magazine, December 2012 | | | (also available to download from $6.00) | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

A work of extraordinary richness. A crucial stage in Schütz's development, the 'Psalms of David' also mark a decisive milestone in the birth of Baroque music in Germany. Having returned from Italy in 1613, armed with all the knowledge and experience needed for composing 'new' music, Schütz waited eight years before publishing his first 'remarkable work' (sic) in the field of sacred music. This maturing process led to the full blossoming of one of the summits of musical expression in which each psalm is invested with its own specific character, and in which Venetian novelties are intermingled with a scrupulous attention to the text. The variety of the musical techniques employed is simply breathtaking.This title was released for the first time in 1998. “Published in 1619, the young Schutz's landmark settings revel in the musical riches of Gabrieli's Venice - wonderfully brought to life by Junghanel's forces.” BBC Music Magazine, December 2012 **** “inspiring, subtle and often noble. Junghanel is particularly good at finding the unifying features of each Psalm, emphasizing the music's inner vitality...Junghanel certainly remains first choice.” International Record Review, September 2012 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
