"Ton Koopman once again seems to be able to express the whole range of Bach's sacred music from spiritual exaltation to religious terror, from giddiest joy to deepest sorrow, from festive celebration to personal mortification."

"Ton Koopman once again seems to be able to express the whole range of Bach's sacred music from spiritual exaltation to religious terror, from giddiest joy to deepest sorrow, from festive celebration to personal mortification. With a small choir and a small orchestra recorded in an intimate acoustic, Koopman's performances have the clarity of a chamber music ensemble. Through the clarity and humanity of their music-making, Koopman's performances seem to express the essence of Bach's sacred music – its exaltation, its terror, its joy, its sorrow, its celebration, and even its mortification. And, once again, Koopman's recordings are wonderfully balanced in a luminous acoustic.”
