Sigiswald Kuijken's Bach Project
A new one voice per part (OVPP) series of Bach cantata recordings directed by
Sigiswald Kuijken is underway on Accent Records. The series will comprise 20
hybrid SACDs, not a complete set of cantatas by any means, but enough for a
complete liturgical year.

Details
/ "A
barefooted, vulnerable St Matthew Passion of sky-high
perfection" -- Because of construction in Leuven, recording
had to be done at night. "During the first night a full live
recording was made. And during daytime [producer] Bert [van der
Wolf] did his production work, so that the next three nights he
knew exactly what parts still had to be done. It was a very
intense and unique process." Sigiswald Kuijken, La
Petite Bande. Choir I: Gerlinde Sämann, soprano; Petra
Noskaiová, contralto; Christoph Genz, tenor; Jan van der Crabben,
baritone. Choir II: Marie Kuijken, soprano;
Patrizia Hardt, contralto; Bernhard Hunziger, tenor; Marcus
Niedermeyr, bass. A fine performance and recording that I can
recommend. I haven't heard John Butt's recording and thus have
no basis for comparison.
