Our Take
Our Take
Upon listening to SIXTEEN's rendition of Heinrich Schutz's Musikalische Exequien, one thing is abundantly clear: these guys definitely know their way around a cheeky bit of 17th century German sacred music. Harry Christophers and his merry band of choral misfits bring a fresh and playful approach to these solemn and introspective compositions, injecting just the right amount of flair and personality into each note.
From the hauntingly beautiful harmonies of the opening "Herr, wenn ich nur dich habe" to the majestic grandeur of the closing "Selig sind die Toten," SIXTEEN truly showcases their versatility and musical prowess. Christophers' expert guidance ensures that every vocal line is executed with precision and passion, resulting in a captivating and immersive listening experience.
The crystal-clear production allows each voice to shine through, making it easy to get lost in the intricate textures and layers of sound. The vocal performances are nothing short of impeccable, with each member of the ensemble bringing their own unique flair to the table.
Overall, SIXTEEN's interpretation of Schutz's Musikalische Exequien is a triumph of artistry and creativity. This album is a must-listen for anyone looking to expand their musical horizons and experience the beauty of early Baroque choral music in all its glory. So grab a glass of your finest mead, sit back, and let SIXTEEN take you on a musical journey like no other. Cheers to that, mate!
