Description
This recording offers an unusual selection of Dietrich Buxtehude's vocal music performed by 2010 Grammy?« Award winning ensemble Theatre of Voices conducted by Paul Hillier. Among these rarely heard works with texts in Swedish and Latin, we find cantatas in the form of virtuoso concertos, as well as arias and chorale settings and Buxtehude's only work in the stile antico, the Missa alla brevis. A natural choice of recording venue for Hillier and his team was St. Mary's Church in Elsinore where Buxtehude was employed as an organist in 1660-68. Bine Bryndorf is the guest organist and plays the authentic (restored) 'Buxtehude organ'.
