Passion Sacred Masterpieces (15 CD)

Opis albumu:

A stunning 15 CD collection of some of the greatest sacred music ever written. From the great Lamentations of Byrd, Tallis and Palestrina, the listener is taken on a remarkable spiritual journey through Bachs great St Matthew Passion, Purcells moving and bleak funeral music for Queen Mary, and Handel radiant Messiah. Pergolesis masterful setting of the Stabat Mater and Telemanns Passions-Oratorium are also to be found here, along with Haydns Stabat Mater and his dark and intense masterpiece Die sieben letzen Worte, or The Seven Last Words of our Saviour from the Cross. Finally, Allegris hauntingly beautiful Miserere opens this collection -- a work that was copied from memory after one hearing by the child Mozart. Prior to that moment the work had only been heard in the Vatican. Other information: - Superb value with a CD-ROM containing a full tracklist, sung texts, translations and booklet notes. - First rate performances from leading choirs including Kings College and Clare College, Cambridge, and the Stuttgart Chamber Chorus.
