Rosenmüller - Vespro della beata Vergine / Cantus Cölln · Concerto Palatino · Junghänel

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Few modern listeners know of Johann Rosenmüller (1619-84), but he and his music were admired and even envied in his day--despite a lurid personal history that includes sexual scandal, prison, and exile. (Want juicy details? Buy the album!) Junghänel has assembled large-scale Psalm-settings, small-scale motets, instrumental works, and plainchant into a Vespers service along the lines of Monteverdi's famous Vespers of 1610. Rosenmüller writes at greater length than Monteverdi--and in a more modern style: you'll find, among other surprises, a fugue that wouldn't be out of place in a Handel oratorio, and an "Amen" with solo voices taking turns in dialogue with a trumpet. The performances are entirely worthy of this magnificent music; clichéd though it may sound, this recording is a revelation. --Matthew Westphal

5 out of 5 stars A very good album!.......2001-10-16

Not having been familiar with Rosenmüller's music, his disc was a revelation to me. Let me start by saying that the performance and recording qualities are top-notch. The music is also of high quality. Rosenmüller studied with Monteverdi and stylistically this music bridges the differences between early seventeenth century baroque music late seventeenth century baroque music such as Alessandro Scarlatti. At any, rate this is really a disc worth having--I have been listening to it for several weeks now and it has only gotten better! Truly joyous music!
