The album Psalmen Davids by Schütz, performed by The Choir of Trinity College, Cambridge, His Majesty's Sagbutts and Cornetts, and directed by Richard Marlow, is a stunning display of musical talent and artistry. The combination of vocal and instrumental performances creates a rich and dynamic sound that is both powerful and deeply moving.
The choir's vocals are impeccable, with each member contributing to a seamless and harmonious sound. Their precision and control are evident throughout the album, particularly in the more complex choral arrangements. The instrumental performances, provided by His Majesty's Sagbutts and Cornetts, add depth and texture to the music, complementing the choir's vocals beautifully.
The album's highlight is undoubtedly the Psalmen Davids, a collection of sacred choral works by Schütz that are both uplifting and contemplative. The choir's rendition of these works is nothing short of breathtaking, with each piece conveying a sense of reverence and awe. The instrumental accompaniment adds an extra layer of richness to the music, elevating it to new heights.
