¡Christoph Kirchheimer: Epiphany Cantatas
¡Classical V.A.
Description
[Machine Translation] Epiphany is a Christian holiday called "Feast of the Epiphany" or "Day of the Epiphany" in the Japanese church. Originally, the term included everything from the birth of Christ and the visit of the three Doctors of the East to his baptism by John the Baptist, but in modern times, the feast day from January 2 to January 8 is designated as Epiphany Day. Graupner composed five cantatas for Epiphany between 1730 and December 1753 and performed them in Darmstadt. These works, in which he actively used new instruments and pursued a variety of timbres and sounds, demonstrate the diligent and honest Graupner's school-mindedness. [Performed by Andrea Lauren Brown (soprano) / Kai Wessel (countertenor) / Georg Poplutz (tenor) / Dominik Werner (bass-baritone) / Sirkka-Liisa Karkinen-Pilk (1st violin, viola d'amore & conducting) Kirchheim Bach Consort
