Their past appearances and future engagements include the Theater an der Wien, the Salzburg Festspele, the Lucerne Festival, the Konzerthaus in Vienna, residencies at the festivals Oude Muziek Utrecht and Bachfest Leipzig, and two concert series of their own in Prague and Dresden.
Very inspired recording. Clear, with a soft sensuality in the sound and deep dramaturgy feeling. A very interesting version by the choir the musicians and conductor.
A very good version of this very elegant and deep music. The dramaturgy of these music is very well translated by the conductor and perfect voice dynamics contrasts. Thanks for this beautiful work.
Stylish, well made and high quality. Special and expressive scenography. Such talented young people. I hope that many will discover your qualities. You really deserved it. 👏
Was this recorded during the pandemic? I notice the reduced number of performers, physically separated and with no audience, but not wearing masks like in some other videos. I'm glad that 1704 is recording Zelenka, who should be better known.
You are very talented, a huge pleasure, and visually also nice. Can you make more videos that are a bit longer. I supports you. You deserve more support, attention and success.
Beautiful performance. I had to study this piece for my 'A' level music course 1985-87 and discovered a love of early music. This work holds a special place in my heart. Thank you.
The music is incomparable, but who for gods sake is responsible the camera? Sometimes I wasnt sure whether I am watching Nightwish on mtv or what. Totally killing the vibe. Such unnecessary dramatization.
