Himmels-Lieder - Sacred Songs & Cantatas - Franz Vitzthum (2012)

Close

The voice of countertenor Franz Vitzthum resounds with lightness and clarity: its almost ‘celestial’ quality appears completely free of all ballast. How appropriate therefore is this programme for Christophorus, in which the yearning for eternal life, when the shackles of mortal existence have been thrown off, was a central theme of the German Baroque period.

Composer: Philipp Heinrich Erlebach, Johann Hildebrand, Georg Böhm, Johann Wolfgang Franck, …
Performer: Franz Vitzthum
Orchestra/Ensemble: Capricornus Consort Basel

Reviews: Franz Vitzthum has selected cantatas and songs by a series of composers including Erlebach, Hildebrand, Böhm and Krieger whose compositions have for the most part been recorded for the first time. The highlight rounding off this programme is the cantata "Ich fürchte keinen Tod auf Erden” by Johann Augustin Kobelius (1674-1731) which is the only work by this composer to have been preserved. Kobelius was a fellow competitor of the young Johann Sebastian Bach for an organ post in the St. Jacob’s church in Sangerhausen and here Bach lost out on the only occasion throughout his entire career! The fact that Kobelius must have deserved the post is borne out by the quality of his cantata which is presented to the public for the first time.
