from Brahms & Bruckner: Motets (SIGCD430) 1 Ich aber bin elend [3'36] 3 minutes 36 seconds 3 tracks2 Ach, arme Welt [2'02] 3 Wenn wir in höchsten Nöten sein [3'31] 'Tenebrae score on all counts. They submit with impressive stamina and unfailing intonation to Bruckner’s instrumental scoring and phrasing, which take little account of singers’ requirements for rest ... 'This beautifully performed, seraphic seqence, conjuring up a pleasant pre-Christmassy atmosphere, is also a sharp musical demonstration' (The Sunday Times) |
