Product-Information:
Bruckner’s motets are small masterpieces, containing intensely expressive harmonic writing and a sense of personal devotion within a characteristically expansive framework. The sensuous Mass in E minor recalls his great symphonies. Grammy-nominated choir Polyphony under their inspirational director Stephen Layton offers impeccable yet passionate performances on this glorious disc.
Rezensionen
'This album finds the composer secure in his spiritual home, serving God in music transcendent. Stephen Layton's reading of the Second Mass articulates sublime, prayer-like qualities routinely overlooked and underplayed by others. The approach … is revelatory, rich in contrasts, fervent outbursts and symphonic tension … An outstanding release' (Classic FM Magazine *****)
'This really excellent offering from Polyphony … Polyphony trumps all others for beauty of tone … In the Benedictus, too, musical sense arises from transparency and intelligent phrasing … The performances of the motets are excellent, too, painting nuanced pictures of these vocally and philosophically stratospheric pieces' (BBC Music Magazine *****)
'I wasn’t prepared for the excellence of this program… The musicianship is so sophisticated, so meticulous that it’s impossible not to get swept up in what the singers are doing… What really captures my attention is the spectrum of vocal colors these singers create in pianissimo range… Maestro Layton’s performances inspire the soul even as they break the heart with their intense beauty' (American Record Guide)
