| Notes & Reviews | Back to Top | ||||

| "It is...a fine pairing of two of Bach’s more extroverted works, in which Herreweghe delves beneath the masculine surface of the Magnificat to find its more tender interior and boldly explores Bach’s expansion of Luther’s great Reformation hymn, Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott. For whatever reason, Cantata 80 seems to have lost a degree of popularity lately, and it’s good to hear it again, complete with W. F. Bach’s interpolated trumpets. I was not particularly enamored of the contributions of the soprano soloists on my first hearing, but they prove, in retrospect, to be more than adequate. Obviously, Harmonia Mundi has a great deal of faith in this recording, with good reason." George Chien, FANFARE | |||||
