The Sixteen<br />
Harry Christophers: conductor<br />
PALESTRINA: Hodie Christus natus est (motet) • Christe Redemptor omnium •<br />
Magnificant Quinti toni • Tui sunt caeli • Reges Tharsis • Mass Hodie Christus<br />
natus est • Song of Songs Nos. 1–3<br />
After Volume 1 won <strong>the</strong> International <strong>Classical</strong> <strong>Music</strong> Award for Early <strong>Music</strong>,<br />
Volume 2 of The Sixteen’s new series devoted to Palestrina is based around<br />
his glorious antiphon for Christmas Day, Hodie Christus natus est. Palestrina’s<br />
legacy and impact on sacred music worldwide is second to none; he was<br />
a master craftsman whose music composers of all ages have attempted to<br />
emulate. He shapes his music in a beautifully sonorous way using a lot of<br />
suspensions but always coming back into <strong>the</strong> line of <strong>the</strong> music.<br />

BACH: Weihnachtsoratorium<br />
For <strong>the</strong> end of 2011, Beringer has announced his retirement as director<br />
of <strong>the</strong> Windsbach Boys Choir after 34 years. Winter & Winter has<br />
chosen this recording as a highlight of his work, newly mastered and in a<br />
refined sound quality. The Windsbach Boys Choir and <strong>the</strong> Munich Bach<br />
Soloists must be counted among <strong>the</strong> most outstanding interpreters of <strong>the</strong><br />
Christmas Oratorio. The production is accomplished by <strong>the</strong> prominent<br />
participation of soloists Juliane Banse, Cornelia Kallisch, Markus Schäfer,<br />
Robert Swensen, and Thomas Quasthoff. Bach’s oeuvre takes center stage<br />
and comes to beautiful bloom.
