The massed voices of the 140-strong National Youth Choir revel in the magnificently soaring lines of Schütz’s sacred music, complemented by John Kitchen’s contributions on the powerful Rieger organ of St Giles’ Cathedral, Edinburgh. Revered by his contemporaries as the ‘Orpheus of our time’, Schütz would never have heard his music performed by forces such as these and on such a scale – surely he would have been a strong advocate of this astounding aural experience. Kitchen’s solo contributions contextualise the choral music with organ works by Samuel Scheidt and other contemporaries of Schütz. “On the whole the choral singing is admirably disciplined and contoured. The most impressive passages tend to be the fullest homophonic sections which close pieces; but "So fahr ich hin zu Jesu Christ" shows that the choir is also adept at music requiring lighter and flexible singing.” Gramophone Magazine, July 2008 “choral singing of the very first rank” International Record Review “something very, very special … superb music, brilliantly interpreted and well recorded” The Organ | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
