DIETRICH BUXTEHUDE Membra Jesu Nostri, seven cantatas for the "Abendmusiken" Concerto Vocale, René Jacobs

‘Jacobs has found the means of marrying intense religious fervour with highly ”personalised” expression. (…) The instrumental ensemble provides a commentary of indescribable poetry. (…) The coupling is also exceptionally interesting, with the jubilation of Heut triumphieret Gottes Sohn forming a superb contrast with the meditations of Membra Jesu nostri and offering an apotheosis in its concluding Alleluia.” – Le Monde de la Musique

This title was released for the first time in 1990.
