Frank Martin, Mass for Two Choirs - Zoltan Kodály, Missa Brevis for Mixed Choir & Organ - Francis Poulenc, Litanies à la Vierge for Three-part Female Chorus & Organ - Choir of the Bavarian Broadcast/Rundfunks, Peter Dijkstra - BR Klassik 2009

This is a real treat from BR Klassik, and these are three important examples of 20th century music for voices that should be in your choral collection. And perhaps they are already. I have multiple versions of all three works here and these performances are very fine and highly competitive. I have too many versions of Kodály's masterful "Missa Brevis" to count - it's just so damn beautiful!





Sorry for keeping things brief (I know you all prefer my typographical babble to all of the exquisite sound) but exhaustion is one of the few constants these days. I will see what tomorrow brings, more posts perhaps - but do not hold your breath as there's a 50/50 that you'd be dead ;)


Enjoy x 3
