Maennerchoere
) | Label: CARUS Catalog: CAR83528 Format: COMPACT DISC SWR Vokalensemble Frieder Bernius Christopher Kaplan Julius Pfeifer Alexander Yudenkov Johannes Kaleschke Georg GaFelix Mendelssohn Bartholdy composed a total of 38 songs for male voices a cappella between 1820 and 1847. He wrote many of them for his own use among family or friends. He also liked to use these secular choruses as gifts or personal thanksgiving. Now the male voices of the SWR Vokalensemble under the direction of Frieder Bernius have presented a recording of these songs. The result is an impressive testimony to these compositions, which are among the least explored parts of Mendelssohn's oeuvre.  Price: $53.98 |
