ann Kuhnau:Magnificat

Ton Koopman is widely accepted as a leading authority on Baroque music Conducting one of Bach's greatest choral works, the Magnificat, as well as one of his most beautiful cantatas.
Including also a lesser-known baroque gem by Bach's predecessor as cantor of the St. Thomas Church, Johann Kuhnau. Performed at St. Thomas Church, Leipzig, the church for which Bach conceived his works.
"For sheer bravura, and an increasingly corporate elan between voices and instruments, the Amsterdam forces are beginning to consolidate on a distinctive timbre and style." -- Gramophone Magazine
