[ Atoll Records / CD ]
Release Date: Sunday 25 October 2015
Bach wrote great songs and here is a collection of his finest, some well-known, others less common. Every track in this selection includes oboe or flute solo alongside the soprano, and the collection is unfailingly melodic, romantic, and moving. An elite group of six musicians, three from Austria, three from NZ, give sumptuous performances of these tracks, led by the gorgeous emerging Viennese soprano Ursula Langmayr.
'This beautifully recorded CD introduces us to Ursula Langmayr who's full-bodied but pliant tone suits this repertoire perfectly. The ensemble playing is world class' Ella@Marbecks
Sich üben im Lieben
Schafe können sicher weiden
Letzte Stunde, brich herein
Flösst mein Heiland
Zerfliesse, mein Herze
Gerechter Gott, ach, rechnest du?
Gott versorget alles Leben
Ich folge dir gleichfalls mit freudigen Schritten
Seufzer, Tränen, Kummer, Not
Genügsamkeit
Ei! wie schmeckt der Coffee süße
Ich will auf den Herren schauen
Blast die wohlgegriffen Flöten
