This review is from: Miserere: Sacred Choral Pieces of the Dresden Baroque (Audio CD)

Unfortunately the Amazon site for this CD is not informative enough. The CD includes Misereres by both Zelenka and Hasse as well as Heinichen's Magnificat and a cantata by Homilius. In a word this is absolutely superb music brilliantly performed by the Rheinische Kantorei under the direction of Hermann Max, a truly inspired leader. If you are not familiar with the works of these composers, you are missing out. I strongly urge you to buy any vocal works by these composers. All of them write exciting and vibrant music.
