Product Information
Hermann Max und J. S. BachHermann Max hat mit seiner Rheinischen Kantorei und dem Kleinen Konzert Interpretationsgeschichte vornehmlich des 17. und 18. Jahrhunderts geschrieben. Neben den großen »klassischen« Meisterwerken hat sich Max immer die Neugier auf Ausgrabungen und Entdeckungen bewahrt und ist immer begeistert auf Ideen unseres Produzenten Burkhard Schmilgun eingegangen: die Ferdinand Ries-Entdeckungen sind da klingender und überzeugender Beweis. Doch nun war es an der Zeit, endlich auch einmal das vielleicht populärste geistliche Werk des großen Thomaskantors in Maxs’ Interpretation zu dokumentieren. Ohne jede Betulichkeit, mit scharfen rhythmischen Akzenten und flotten Tempi, brillant im Surroundklang haben wir hier das Weihnachtsoratorium fürs 21. Jahrhundert!
Product Information
Hermann Max and Bach’s Christmas Oratorio
Hermann Max, his Rheinische Kantorei and Das Kleine Konzert have made history with their interpretations of music mainly from the 17th and 18th centuries. Countless radio recordings – mostly produced by his “local” radio station WDR – many live concerts, for example at his own early music festival in Knechtseden, and a large number of CD recordings, made with increasing exclusivity for cpo: this is the balance of this impressive, incredibly diverse artistic life to date. Along with the great “classical” masterpieces, Max has kept his curiosity about forgotten works and new discoveries, and always reacts enthusiastically to ideas from our producer Burkhard Schmilgun: the Ferdinand Ries discoveries are resounding and convincing evidence of this. However, the time has finally come to document probably the most popular sacred work composed by the great musical director of the Thomaskirche in Max’s interpretation. Not in the least fussy, with sharp rhythmic accents, lively tempi and in stereo surround, here we have (according at least to the advertising machinery of the Mayor Label) the Christmas oratorio for the 21st century!
