Homilius: Sehet, welch eine Liebe. Motets |
| CV 83.210/00 | | | Sensational masterpieces in miniature form: The motets of Homilius can be described as the most important historical contribution to this genre between those of Bach and Mendelssohn. This recording certainly contributes towards placing the long-forgotten works by this composer and once highly-acclaimed Dresdner Kreuzkirche Kantor in the limelight again.
“This CD is an absolute must (at least) for ever lover of choir music. … That the music of the CD can, at times, unfold with such a lasting, outright magical effect, lies naturally not solely on the music itself, but also on the masterful interpretation: Frieder Bernius has intentionally refrained from using any instruments in order to achieve the purest interpretation possible.” | | | | | | | | Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik 4/2005; Classical Internet Award 2005 | | | | Conductor: | Frieder Bernius | | Ensemble: | Kammerchor Stuttgart | | Carus series: CD series "Music from Dresden" | | genres: Motets |
