Notes & Reviews:

This new CD featuring the bass baritone Klaus Mertens and the Accademia Daniel under the conductor Shalev Ad-El offers a representative sampling of baroque bass cantatas from the Kantoreiarchiv St. Johannis in the small town of Mugeln in Saxony. The cantatas presented here are from the first half of the eighteenth century and were copied during Daniel Jacob Springsguth's years as church music director. This CD's comprehensive program represents a great gain for the cantata repertoire and shows that even composers working outside the major centers could be masters of their trade.
