CD Reviews

Neglected masterpiece

Bo Biffa | Quincy Ma | 10/26/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"At long last, an unjustly neglected masterpiece has seen the light and it is long overdue. Even Brahms thought enough of it to conduct the world premiere for his friend. Max Bruch, the composer famous for his beautiful violin concerto #1 in G minor, and The Scottish Fantasy, thought (and hoped) he would be remembered primarily for his Choral music, and listening to this latest offering on cd, you may wonder why he was'nt. It is both serene and powerful music and I for one, only want to hear more of it. The opening orchestral prelude sets the stage for much beautiful singing. Highly recommended. Performance could'nt be finer."
