Bach: Cantatas Vol 12 / Gardiner, English Baroque Soloists
SDG is delighted to release Volume 12 - Cantatas for the twenty-second and twenty-third Sundays after trinity.
John Eliot Gardiner, The Monteverdi Choir and The English Baroque Soloists performed both of these programmes in England: at All Saints church in Tooting and at Winchester Cathedral, in November 2000.
The soloists include James Gilchrist, Peter Harvey and Joanne Lunn.
The highlight of this album is Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme (âSleepers, wakeâ) - one of Bachâs best known cantatas, and one that has long been part of the Monteverdi Choirâs repertoire. It is described as âa cantata without weaknesses, without a dull bar, technically, emotionally and spiritually of the highest orderâ.
Ich armer Mensch, ich SĂŒndenknecht (âI, wretched man, I slave to sinâ) is Bachâs only cantata for solo tenor still in existence. It is sung movingly by James Gilchrist.
Of three cantatas on the parable of the unjust steward (BWV 55, 89, 115), Mache dich, mein Geist, bereit (âPrepare yourself, my soulâ) is considered to stand out for its subtle instrumental writing and spellbinding arias, which evoke the yearning of the soul for divine mercy.
The recording in Tooting (CD1) is the only one in the whole series that wasnât recorded live: the original concert took place in Eton chapel, right under the Heathrow airport flight path, so we had to try and recreate the same conditions in a quieter place.
This album is packaged with a separate index sheet of the Cantata series.
