J.S. BACH: Famous Cantatas [CD de audio] Holland Boys Choir, Pieter-Jan Leusink and J.S.Bach

The sacred cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach are considered one of the most precious heritages of human creativity of all time. In no other work is it possible to find such a profound expression of human emotions, from the deepest pain to full and ecstatic joy, from a drama full of pathos to serene contemplation. This five-CD set presents a wide selection of the most beautiful and beloved cantatas, works that for centuries have been an inexhaustible source of strength and comfort for generations of faithful and that will surely continue to serve the same function for men and women to come. These works have great protagonists such as the Netherlands Bach Collegium original instrument ensemble directed with palpable passion by an inspired Pieter Jan Leusink and the Holland Boys Choir, an excellent choir of white voices, which is in line with the performance tradition of the Bach times.
