Description: | 25 years of La Cetra Basel! To celebrate this anniversary, La Cetra and Arcana are releasing the 'greatest musical masterpiece of all time', as the work was called in the 19th century: Bach's Mass in B minor. 'It is a dream come true to have recorded this work for La Cetra's 25th jubilee - the best birthday present ever!â? says maestro Andrea Marcon. Under his direction, La Cetra Basel has made a name for itself in recent years with acclaimed interpretations of J. S. Bach's most important sacred works. Featuring top-flight soloists, this recording presents Andrea Marconâ??s particular vision for this Mass, notable for the division of voices between â??concertistsâ? and â??ripienistsâ?. The sonority and character of each movement emerge from the skilfully crafted balance between solos and tuttis, creating a three-dimensional sound reminiscent of a three-manual organ. The result is a unique tonality, full of fresh nuances and colours, and no doubt very close to what Bach had imagined.
