Kampf Busse Und Bekehrung
) | Label: CARUS Catalog: CV83351 Format: CD Hamvasi; Scholl; Szaboki; Varadi; Zadori; Purcell Choir; Orfeo Orchestra; VashegyiComposed by: Haydn, Johann Michael Johann Michael Haydn's oratorio 'Der Kampf der Buße und Bekehrung' is among his lesser-known works. The Purcell Choir and the Orfeo Orchestra, under György Vashegyi, present a recording of the second and only surviving part of this three-part oratorio. Its scoring is impressive and unusual: All of the five solo roles are allotted to sopranos. The artistic mix of majestic passages, Baroque flourishes and virtuoso arias makes clear why later composers took J. M. Haydn's music as their model.  Price: $27.98 |
