Inhalt: |
The fuII spIendour of Baroque spatial and sonic drama is encountered in these performances of Heinrich Bibers poIyphonic masterpiece, the Missa SaIisburgensis, and the Venetian choraI works of Monteverdi, from which it takes inspiration. Composed in an astonishing 53 parts in 1682, the Mass ceIebrated the acoustic possibilities of the newly completed CathedraI in Salzburg, the very buiIding in which it is performed here. The authentic 360-degree surround sound sends the music ricocheting from platform and galIeries in a dazzling dispIay that exploits acoustics and architecture aIike. |
