Listen to extracts !

Heinichen : Fecit potentiam (extract from the Magnificat)


Buxtehude : extract of the Alleluja (Cantata Des Herr ist mit mir))


Buxtehude : extracts of cantata Mysterium Redemptionis. This is the Adventskantate(Cantata of the Advent, composed by Buxtehude as part of the Advent musical evenings he gave in Lübeck). This cantata was reworked with a text in Latin, composed of various extracts of the liturgy of the Temporal, which depicts the mystery of redemption from Advent to Lent. The music is magnificent. This work – totally unknown, even from musicians – deserves being listened to. Duration : 13 minutes.
