ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
Quote from ARTE:
The year 2022 marks the 350th anniversary of the death of Heinrich Schütz. On this occasion, Les Cris de Paris pays tribute to the “German Monteverdi”.
Under the direction of Geoffroy Jourdain, Les Cris de Paris sublimates some of the most beautiful psalms of Heinrich Schütz through a program combining excerpts from the Psalmen Davids with songs inspired by the Song of Songs, a work which inhabited and inspired the composer. German all his life.
All of Heinrich Schütz’s genius unfolds in this way during a concert where solo, tutti, interplay of timbres and textures are mixed… It is precisely this rich palette that is still worth Heinrich Schütz’s place today. considered not only as one of the great masters of polyphony but also as one of the greatest predecessors of Johann Sebastian Bach. A status enhanced by its pivotal role in the birth of German Baroque.
