Famous as a great symphonist and fine chamber music and a number of large-scale works for chorus and orchestra, Johannes Brahms is often overlooked for his sacred and secular works for choirs of more modest proportions. His romanticism and love of early music and folk song make these choral works so easy to sing and hear. This CD features 12 cuts, 4 movements of the accompanied 'Gesange fur Fravenchor, 2 Horner und Harfe op. 17,' 7 movements of the a cappella 'Sechs Lieder und Romanzen op. 93a,' 3 movements of the lovely a cappella 'Marienlieder op.22,' the beautiful a cappella 'Ach, arme Welt, du trugest mich op. 110, Nr. 2,' and the 2 soaring, harmonic a cappella movements of 'Zwei Motetten op. 74.' Conductor Matt directs the international Choir superbly, and our appreciation of this group, and for Brahms' 'blue collar' choral works, couldn't be higher! |
