Editorial Reviews

Although Heinrich Schutz enjoyed an exalted reputation in pre-J.S. Bach 17th-century Germany, only a few of his works, including the motets and Psalms of David, are commonly performed today. The Christmas work performed on this disc--"The Historia of the Joyful and Merciful Birth of God and Mary's Son, Jesus Christ"--adopts a form that was later used in the great passions and oratiorios of Bach. That is, the gospel story is told by means of an Evangelist narrator with choral and orchestral interludes and commentary. Schutz also employs techniques of musical characterization common to Baroque music and to that of later periods, especially in opera. Angels are represented by strings, the people by wind instruments. King Herod gets trumpets; the shepherds, flutes. It's a charming and unusual work that's performed here with utmost stylistic integrity and technical mastery--enhanced by outstanding soloists. --David Vernier
