Search - J.S. Bach, La Petite Bande :: St Matthew Passion (Hybr) (Dig)

"Sigiswald Kuijken's lively but sensitive and thoughtful direction, and his attention to details of the instrumental texture, ensure that the work gets the performance it merits ... compelling." -- Gramophone Bach's St. Matthew Passion in a controversial performance! This recording features a "thinned out" choir, with the soloists singing the choir parts, and so the recording is especially transparent, pure, and direct. La Petite Bande and Sigiswald Kuijken are internationally acclaimed in the early music circuit.
