Par REICHARDT JOHANN FRIEDRICH. If he is known at all, then generally Reichardt is known primarily as a Lied composer. This first edition of the full score of the Weihnachtskantilene makes this work for large ensemble once again accessible. This simple, homophonic setting in 16 movements is scored in some sections for double choir, whereby the higher choir can be performed effectively by a children’s choir. Not least in importance is the moving poetry by Matthias Claudius, which helps to make Reichardt’s work a rewarding and attractive enrichment to the traditional Christmas repertoire./ Répertoire / Solistes ST, Choeur SSAATB, 2 Flûtes Traversières,

Symphonie-Kantate. Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Mendelssohn describes to his friend Klingemann the 1840 work as 'a ‘symphony for chorus and orchestra’… First three symphonic movements, to which 12 choral- and solo- movements are appendaged; the words from the Psalms, and indeed all pieces, vocal and instrumental, are composed in the words ‘Everything which has breath, Praise the Lord’; one understands by this that first the instruments give praise in their own way, and then the chorus and the individual voices.
