Description
Graupner holds in store music of the highest artistic sophistication. Flawless vocal achievements and an orchestra that savours all the colour nuances of Graupner's carefully thought-out instrumentation make these Passion cantatas a genuine listening feast.' This is what klassik-heute.com wrote after the release of Vol. 1 featuring cantatas by Christoph Graupner. Once again the instrumentation is manifold in its design, and it is here too that we find the key to Graupner's personal style: he captivates his listeners not so much with catchy melodies as with intensive play with the various tone colours made available to him by the court chapel members and their instruments. This recording is new proof that Graupner was indeed one of the most independent-minded and individual and composers of the German Baroque period.
