Nicolaus Bruhns (1665‐1697) was born in Denmark, where he caught the
attention of Buxtehude, becoming his most talented and favourite pupil.
He became composer at the Danish Royal Court when his untimely death
at age 31 ended a splendid career. Many works by Bruhns have been lost.
The young Johann Sebastian Bach has a great admiration for the vocal
works by Bruhns, and their influence may be clearly seen in Bach's early
works.
This new recording presents the complete Cantatas by Bruhns, written in
the "Stylus Phantasticus" displaying a notable freedom of form and
expression of feeling.
Performed by 4 excellent vocal soloists and the Harmonices Mundi,
conducted by Claudio Astronio, who already recorded successfully for
Brilliant Classics works by Handel, Cabezon (complete works) Wilhelm
Friedemann Bach and Stradella.
