CD Reviews

The first sacred cantatas whole performance by two geniuses
05/18/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Harnoncourt & Leonhardt opened new frontiers to Bach's choral music by this complete performance of nearly two hundred sacred cantatas. Superb performance, played following what the research suggests it was performed in Bach's time, and great singers. The most striking thing to me is the use of children for soprano parts, which seems the most appropriate rendering of this music.Because it was recorded in the late seventies and eighties, the sound quality is clearly surpassed by today recordings, but the overall result (I think) is still the best.Absolutely recommended!"
