Immerse yourself in the sacred choral works of Carl Heinrich Graun with this captivating album, released on September 1, 2006, by CPO. The album showcases Graun's mastery of the choral genre, featuring a complete performance of his "Te Deum" and three motets from his "Vierstimmige Motetten und Arien." The "Te Deum," a traditional Christian hymn of praise, is presented in its entirety, with each of its eleven sections expertly crafted to highlight the grandeur and solemnity of the text. The three motets, each distinct in character, offer a glimpse into Graun's versatility as a composer. From the introspective "Herr, ich habe lieb die Stätte deines Hauses" to the jubilant "Lasset uns freuen und fröhlich sein," and the triumphant "Machet die Tore weit," these pieces demonstrate Graun's ability to evoke a wide range of emotions through choral music. With a total runtime of 59 minutes, this album is a testament to Graun's enduring legacy in the choral repertoire.
