Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern
A Christmas pastorale with music and songs by
Bernhard Schmid, Michael Praetorius
Claudio Monteverdi, Heinrich Schütz, Gaspar Sanz
Domenico Scarlatti, Salvatore Lanzetti and others
Clemencic Consort
René Clemencic, conductor
A major priority of the baroque age was making the
delights of the afterlife palpable here on earth. With a
selection of baroque pastorale music and sacred songs,
René Clemencic and his Consort take us on a journey
to that earlier era.
Introductory texts on each composer as well as
song texts enrich the booklet of these CD, which
should be on the shelves of all music lovers of authentic
Christmas music.
