Canticum Canticorum
Marc-Antoine Charpentier, John Dunstable, ...

ATMA, 2008

Music For and Through the Ages
I've listened to this disc half a dozen times already, yet I still don't know if I can adequately do justice to its sublime vocal magic. It's comprised of a number of songs inspired by the Song of Songs, a book in the Bible that celebrates both divine and physical ...
  
  











  



  
The World of Early Music
Alexander Agricola, Alfonso X (el Sabio), ...

Naxos, 2000

A great introduction to Western roots
It's amazing how modern ancient music sounds. This is an excellent introduction to diverse roots of Western music and an outrageous bargain at this price. All the performances are good. If you, like me, enjoy World music, jazz and classical, I predict you will like ...
  
  











  



  
The Baroque Christmas Album
Johann Sebastian Bach, Marc-Antoine Charpentier, ...

Archiv Produktion, 2005

5-PLUS Stars
There are not many things in life that I would describe as just Gorgeous -- but this album is definitely one of them. The selections, the arrangements, the production quality, all are clean, yet lush -- simultaneously light and rich. The effect is wonderful. This ...

Naxos, 2005

Fulfilling Overview of the Baroque Era in Music and Words
Yet another great bargain-priced package from Naxos effectively provides an overview of the rich Baroque period with two discs containing more than 2 ½ hours of music and a comprehensive, 140-page primer booklet. Compiled by music historian Clive Unger-Hamilton, the ...
  
  











  



  
Beyond Chant: Mysteries Of The Renaissance
Anonymous, Adrian Batten, ...

Delos Records, 1994

Lofty music
Some of the earliest pieces of Christian music are the various kinds of chant. These hearken back to synagogue singing; there were various kinds of chant, including Gregorian, Old Roman, Mozarabic, Cistercian and Anglican chant. These tend toward the monophonic, ...
  
  











  



  
Schütz: German Requiem: The Seven Words of Jesus Christ on the Cross
Ralf Grobe, Ulrich Maier, ...

Naxos, 2004

Beloved Schütz Works Radiantly Performed
The two important works here are the 'German Requiem' ('Musicalische Exequien'), SWV 179-181 and 'The Seven Words of Jesus Christ on the Cross' ('Die sieben Worte Jesu Christi am Kreuz'), SWV 478. The two short works that fill out the CD are the five-part tenth and ...
  
  











  



  
Tears from Heaven
Gregorio Allegri, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

RCA, 1997

If This is What Heaven Sounds Like ...
then I can't wait to get there ! Out of my extensive music collection this is the album that gets played on a daily basis. It is not often one can say that every track is pure pleasure to listen to; but it is the case with Tears from Heaven (and the second CD in the ...
  
  











  



  
Heinrich Schütz: Symphoniae Sacrae, 1629
Harry van der Kamp, Heinrich Schutz, ...

Accent Records, 1999

The Rapture Is at Hand
Last night I had the strangest dream: In my sleep, Steve Jobs came to me and commissioned me to pre-program an iPod for every living human being with the music most likely to induce Rapture. I thought hard about an assortment, but then decided that all the works of a ...
  
  











  



  
Ultimate Classical Christmas Album of All Time
Ultimate Classical Christmas Record of All Time

Sony, 2002

Breathtakingly beautiful!
Over and over we played "Die Menge der Engel" - - it is stunningly beautiful! The loftiness of the voices, wonderful. We loved the boys/children's choruses on many of the other pieces on the album. Duets by Placido Domingo and Luciano Pavorati - - magnifico! It ...
  
  











  



  
A Baroque Christmas
Geoffrey Coleby, Stafford Dean, ...

Polygram Records, 1991

Sophisticated Singing
This is a gem of an album, containing not only some glorious and seldom heard pieces, but also the only available recorded version of "Soberana Maria" (anon.), a piece of heart-breaking beauty, sung exquisitely a capella.
  
  











  



  
Schütz: Psalmen Davids
Michael McCarthy, Johann Hermann Schein, ...

Naxos, 1996

Good introduction to Schuetz
This recording is a good introduction to the work of Heinrich Schuetz. The excerpts from Psalmen Davids are well-chosen examples of his work. Summerly and his group perform the works gracefully and intimately. The inclusion of Schein's organ pieces is a plus since it ...
  
  











  



  
Schutz: Geistliche Chormusik, SWV 369-397 (Op 11) /Bach Collegium Japan * Suzuki
Yoshikazu Mera, Chiyuki Urano, ...

Bis, 1997

Heavenly Choir-Music
By 1648, Heinrich Schuetz was both a survivor and a relic of his own past glory. The 63-year-old devout Lutheran had survived the religious slaughter of the Thirty Years War, which had killed more than half of the musicians of his German world. Surely the most ...
  
  











  



  
La bella Ninfa: European Madrigals ca. 1600
Jacques Arcadelt, John Bennet, ...

Berlin Classics, 1998

Must have it!
The European Renaissance madrigals remain an invaluable good of humanity. And this recording is another proof that the real music goes hand in hand with good performers. The madrigal, a fashionable genre of secular vocal music in the sixteenth century, has lost its ...
  
  











  



  
Heinrich Schütz: Psalms Of David
Heinrich Schutz, Dresdner Kreuzchor, ...

Berlin Classics, 1994

Good worship music, like Mauersberger always does
The reviews on Mauersberger tend to show one's perspective on music in general. Those who see Schütz mostly in terms of style period usually are happier with other conductors. However, those like myself who view Schütz as providing music for worship in the Lutheran ...
