Product Description

Immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of Heinrich Schütz's sacred music with the album "Schutz: Christmas Story / Cantiones Sacrae." Released on September 16, 1996, this exquisite collection showcases the mastery of one of the most influential composers of the 17th century. The album is a blend of two distinct works: "Christmas Story," a narrative of the Nativity, and "Cantiones Sacrae," a set of sacred songs.

"Christmas Story" is a dramatic and evocative retelling of the Nativity, featuring a series of intermezzos that depict various characters and scenes from the story. The piece is known for its vivid storytelling and emotional depth, making it a standout work in Schütz's repertoire. "Cantiones Sacrae," on the other hand, is a collection of sacred songs that showcase Schütz's mastery of polyphonic writing and his ability to convey deep spiritual meaning through music.

The album spans 55 minutes and is presented by the renowned label Naxos, known for its high-quality recordings and commitment to classical music. This album is a must for anyone interested in early Baroque music and the works of Heinrich Schütz. The performances are both technically impressive and deeply moving, making this album a true gem in the world of classical music.
