Description: Cappella Amsterdam - Psalms of Repentance [New CD] Artist: Cappella Amsterdam Title: Psalms of Repentance Condition: Format: CD Release Date: 2023 Label: Pentatone UPC: 8717306260282 Genre: Classical Artists Cappella Amsterdam and it's artistic leader Daniel Reuss present their third Pentatone album with a recording of Alfred Schnittke's Psalms of Repentance. Schnittke composed the piece in 1988 to commemorate the Christianisation of Russia, Ukraine and Belarus in 988, and based it on anonymous Russian texts from the 16th century about guilt and repentance. It is one of the most impressive large-scale works for a cappella choir written in the twentieth century, setting intensely emotional texts to equally expressive music, and approaching centuries-old Orthodox musical traditions through the lens of late twentieth-century music. This recording uses the original manuscript, which differs in multiple ways from the published score, resulting in an interpretation that aims to be closer to the composer's intentions. Since it's foundation in 1970, Cappella Amsterdam has shown an exceptional mastery of contemporary and early vocal music, with acclaimed excurses to Romantic repertoire as well. Daniel Reuss has been Artistic Leader of Cappella Amsterdam for over three decades now, and has worked with several renowned choirs and ensembles. Their PENTATONE debut album In Umbra Mortis (2021) won an Edison Klassiek Award, and was followed by David Lang: the writings in 2022.Copyright DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
