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 Mauricio Kagel

Mauricio Kagel is modernist whose music is easy to love. The program booklet's graphic layout and notes for the percussion setup for Kagel's Serenade are a perfect illustration of the composer's playfulness, the profligacy of his inventiveness, and his disregard for convention of any kind. The setup includes, among many other things, hurdy-gurdy, ...

composed by Giya Kancheli

Little Imber is a small, ancient British town that was evacuated of its inhabitants and used as a training site for urban warfare during the Second World War. For Giya Kancheli, its war-torn architecture and desolation were reminiscent of his native Georgia. His Little Imber is scored for instrumental ensemble, solo voice, and children's and men's ...

performed by Heleen Koele (soprano), Hugo Oliveira (bass), Jasper Schweppe (baritone), Marcel Beekman (tenor), Marjon Strijk (soprano), Marlene Goldstein (alto), Nederlands Kamerkoor (choir, chorus), Peter Dijkstra (conductor)
composed by Johann Sebastian Bach

That Bach's motets are not his most popular sacred choral works is easily explainable. When asked to choose between the Passions' spiritual drama, the Mass' magnificent architecture, the cantatas' infinite diversity, or the motets' inward piety, most listeners will more likely choose any of the former before the latter. Still, for concentrated ...
