Martin Klietmann, Heinrich Schütz, Fux, Bruhns, Monteverdi, Edward H Tarr, Capella Savaria, Pál Németh - Heinrich Schütz Fux Bruhns Monteverdi

Review by Pei Zhou

The album "Heinrich Schütz Fux Bruhns Monteverdi" by Martin Klietmann, featuring works by Heinrich Schütz, Fux, Bruhns, and Monteverdi, is a beautiful collection of Baroque music. The album is performed by Edward H Tarr, Capella Savaria, and Pál Németh, who bring a vibrant energy and precision to each track.

The album opens with Schütz's "Musikalische Exequien," a stunning funeral mass that showcases the composer's mastery of the Baroque style. Tarr's trumpet playing is particularly impressive, adding a regal touch to the piece. The album also includes works by lesser-known composers, such as Johann Fux and Nicolaus Bruhns, whose compositions are given new life by the talented performers.

Monteverdi's "L'Orfeo" is a standout track, with Klietmann's interpretation of the aria "Possente spirto" being a highlight of the album. The Capella Savaria's accompaniment is elegant and lively, perfectly capturing the spirit of the piece.

Summary by Pei Zhou

"Heinrich Schütz Fux Bruhns Monteverdi" is a must-listen for fans of Baroque music. The combination of talented performers and lesser-known works makes for a unique and enjoyable listening experience.
