Schütz - Alleluia: Lobet den Herren / Capriccio Stravagante / Vox Luminis / Sempé

[@mooretuba]

A terrific performance of one of Schütz' most accessible works. If you're near Saxony between now and October 2022, check out one of the many concerts in honor of the Master's 350 anniversary of his death. He is under-appreciated, but that is rapidly changing!

[@CapriccioStravagante]

Waking up listeners - Capriccio Stravagante is world-renowned for their memorable interpretations of Renaissance and Baroque music. Founded in 1986 by Skip Sempé, the ensemble of three to seventy performers incorporates Capriccio Stravagante, the Capriccio Stravagante Renaissance Orchestra and Capriccio Stravagante Les 24 Violons. By the mid 1990s, the ensemble had built up an extensive discography for which they received international acclaim and had performed in major concert halls and festivals worldwide. Nonchalance & Power - The ensembles seek a musical aesthetic whose values have been nearly lost to contemporary musical life. Unlike many other early music ensembles, they adhere to traditional principles of articulation, rhetoric, scholarship, imagination and talent to break down conventions that have little to do with historical practice, particularly those originating in twentieth-century ‘Baroque’ performance practices. Capriccio Stravagante has recorded extensively for the Paradizo, Deutsche Harmonia Mundi, Astrée, Alpha and Teldec labels. Man-made beauty - The Capriccio Stravagante Renaissance Orchestra offers virtuoso performers on a highly distinctive musical instrumentarium that includes violins, viols, recorders, cornetti, sackbuts, krummhorns, shawms, lutes, harps, harpsichords, virginals, organs, and percussion. Derived from the instrumental virtuosity that sixteenth-century music demanded, their playing techniques are completely unknown to classically trained instrumentalists and mainstream audiences today. The ensemble is the largest and most luxurious gathering yet assembled for the performance of masterpieces from this Golden Age of musical creativity. Awards & Rewards - Capriccio Stravagante’s exceptional chamber ensemble playing has inspired three generations of musicians, many of whom have gone on to enjoy international careers. The Capriccio Stravagante Prize was created by Skip Sempé in 1997, and served to encourage numerous musicians in their early careers. It is particularly touching that many of those musicians have now become an integral part of Capriccio Stravagante’s activities. Sempé receives lasting inspiration from the key members of these renewed generations.

Génial ❤❤❤

[@judithwhitehouse2149]

Schutz mit percussion - that's new to me...Great stuff!

[@francoislebedel4428]

Excellent. J'aime bien Schütz que ne n'ai découvert qu'il y a peu d'années. Ce compositeur qui se situe à la charnière entre la Renaissance et l'époque baroque est demeuré très fidèle à l'art musical de la fin du Moyen-Âge.

[@LazerTurken]

Thank you for the wonderful performance - I love the music of schütz

[@marcabitbol364]

Magnifique !!!! Avant Bach L'allemagne a donné bien des précurseurs de très grand talent comme Buxtehude, Schutz et tant d'aitres. La musique aussi a une histoire où les génies sont juchés sur les épaules de leurs prédécesseurs !!!!!!

[@ronaldmessina4229]

Y porqué hay que traducir al anglosajón?😢 ,el anglosajón no tiene nada de la gracia necesaria para hacer traducciones, en cambio el FRANCÉS es completamente válido para hacerse entender mundialmente ❤😊

[@zacariaslamadre-6174]

Es... inefable... Aplausos desde Guatemala Centroamérica.

[@mcburcke]

Beautifully done! Schuetz is my very favorite composer of that period. Brilliant orchestration, as well. You've done him great justice; bravo!

[@alessandrodepoi5868]

Che meraviglia! Musica tedesco-veneziana eseguita da musicisti di primo ordine, un piacere per le orecchie ma anche per lo sguardo.

[@barbaranack1105]

Grandios! ❤

[@davidswan3071]

Some amazing musicians performing an amazing piece. Schutz is a guilty pleasure.

[@paulsmith5752]

I'm out and proud about liking Schuetz.

[@johnjensen6246]

OH, GAWD....such sounds r 'Awesome'! Jn

[@classicfan4683]

Prächtiger Klang, an dem sowohl Sänger wie Instrumentalisten gleichberechtigt Anteil haben, weil sie ihr Vibrato gezielt einsetzen! Vorzüglich ausbalancierte Aufnahmetechnik! Ob Vater Schütz diese Komposition jemals so schön gehört hat?

[@MrEspressso2000]

So schön hat er es wohl nicht gehört, aber: an manchen Stellen fehlt die Ausgewogenheit zwischen Sängern u. Instrumentalisten, die starken Blechbläser überdecken sie.

[@ronaldmessina4229]

Anglosajón anglosajón anglosajón pero qué siempre le pasa al Deutsch?😢 el anglosajón no 👎 tiene nada de la gracia necesaria para hacer traducciones, en cambio el DEUTSCH es completamente válido para hacerse entender mundialmente ❤😊

[@ronaldmessina4229]

@classicfan yo estoy completamente de acuerdo con Ud, pero porqué hay este deseo por el anglosajón?😢 el anglosajón no tiene nada de la gracia necesaria para hacer traducciones, en cambio el DEUTSCH es completamente válido para hacerse entender mundialmente ❤😊

[@greggdoolittle6562]

One of my favorites. Thanks so much.

[@farahmohammed1963]

Absolutely glorious!!💕

[@conductorsearle]

Exquisite! Gorgeous playing and singing!

[@gabordobrocsi5368]

[@emrahkorkmaz87]

The theorbo players ROCK!

[@ronaldmessina4229]

Yo podría estar en el cielo 🌌 escuchando 👂 esta música 🎶 tan dulce 🍭 y preciosa y no me hará nada más de nada porque ya tendría de todo lo que se puede querer con ella ❤😊

[@fjsy55rp]

Wunderbar !

[@moniquemalaurie9713]

Magnifique!

[@francoisecheminal2222]

A 75 ans bientôt et sans aucune notion de musique , j'admire cette oeuvre qui me parait inspirée d'en haut ! Bravo à tous , de son compositeur à tous les éxécutants . Mon oncle Joachim OUVRIER-BUFFET mort pour la France en juin 1940 en défendant le pont de Clamecy ( Eglise de Béthléem ) doit avoir une pensée ( ? ) pour le jeune et excellent chef d'orchestre Lionel MEUNIER dont le talent et la maîtrise m'ont bouleversé.

[@dietergrob8427]

Fantastisch...!

[@leoguitarism]

Que hermoso

[@beatschlapfer1701]

Grossartig !

[@agnesmichel1286]

J'ai découvert ce compositeur grâce au livre Germania de Simon Winder. Comment ce fait-il qu'il soit si méconnu ?

[@colinhazell6259]

Fantastic!

[@mariabuchner279]

a very good performance and avery good recording - though the acustics of the room may have made it a little bit difficult to stay together for the ensembles in some details -- but very beautiful is also the great reverberation which gives the music the (neccessary) space to blossom out ...

[@francoislebedel4428]

Splendide.

[@gjlander100]

Not much Schutz is performed today. I wonder is he being "rediscovered"?

[@catherineouriaghli6396]

Amazing!!!

[@manuelrosales5136]

Gorgeous performance!

[@francoislebedel4428]

Éblouissant.

Minden Karácsonykor, minden barátomnak csak ennyit küldök: SWV 439

[@sigurdm]

🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🌹🌹🌹

[@oldionus]

As a point of information, this is SWV 38 from the Psalmen Davids, 1619. It is a setting of Psalm 150. Alleluja! Lobet den Herrn in seinem Heiligtum; lobet ihn in der Feste seiner Macht! 2 Lobet ihn in seinen Taten; lobet ihn in seiner großen Herrlichkeit! 3 Lobet ihn mit Posaunen; lobet ihn mit Psalter und Harfen! 4 Lobet ihn mit Pauken und Reigen; lobet ihn mit Saiten und Pfeifen! 5 Lobet ihn mit hellen Cymbalen; lobet ihn mit wohlklingenden Cymbalen! 6 Alles, was Odem hat, lobe den Herrn! Alleluja! Schütz set this same text, or a version of it, several times in later compositions.
