Immerse yourself in the timeless elegance of classical music with Sir Neville Marriner's latest album, "Bach & Scarlatti: Cantatas - Albinoni, Vivaldi & Telemann: Concerti." Released on November 18, 2024, under Warner Classics, this exquisite collection showcases the mastery of Sir Neville Marriner and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, accompanied by renowned soloists Maurice André, Celia Nicklin, and Tess Miller.
The album is a harmonious blend of cantatas and concerti, featuring works by some of the most celebrated composers in history. Dive into the profound spiritual depth of Bach's cantatas, including selections from "Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen," "Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied," and "Komm, du süsse Todesstunde." Each piece is a testament to Bach's unparalleled ability to convey divine inspiration through music.
Complementing Bach's sacred works are the vibrant concerti of Albinoni, Vivaldi, and Telemann. The album includes Albinoni's Concerto in F Major for Trumpet and Oboe, Vivaldi's Concerto for Violin and Oboe in B-Flat Major (arranged by Thilde for trumpet and violin), and Telemann's Concerto for 2 Oboes and Trumpet in D Major.
