German Baroque songs (Deutsche Barocklieder) - Annette Dasch

Poets and musicians that lived the thirty years suffered from censorship from the orthodox in which music should be driven by the nature rhythm of the poetry, where no exaltations of emotions  were permitted or were highly impeded. It was a very difficult time in which war and illness stroke. For men in these circumstances, life was crude and every pleasure written down was shortened. It was also a time in which emblems and mottos take more significance (more or less as we can see in some Facebook chains), it was the way to appreciate the few left in a decadent society.

Enjoy in the voice of this great singer :)

Himmels Lieder (Sacred Songs and Cantatas)

Among the composers that are in this selection, although all of them are now dismissed despite their success in their time, there are some that do not merite such a discredit, just to give some names, Kobelius, Bohm, Sweelink and Erlbach). 

It is fascinating discovering a rare cd with uknown works composed by unknown composers, but at the same time is very sad. It is like fall in love and inmediatly been disapointed. The lost of music in early ages is very commom, quality and full aceptance do no prevent music from been forgot and then by misfortune, been lost. As examples, less than 10% of Erlebach's music survives, Yes!, more than 90% of his music was lost in a fire, the same as plenty of music of Xeixas that was lost during the Lisbon eartquake and fire of 1755. Just around 50% of Monteverdi's and Zelenka's music have survived. And for all the Bach's lovers, thay must know that about 100 of his cantatas are lost alongside other works. 

Better enjoy what is left :)

Enjoy!!
