Today we’re featuring music of Heinrich Schütz, a composer born around 1585 who, more than anyone else at the time, established a tradition of high craftsmanship and intellectual depth in German music, moving it from the periphery of the arts into the central position that it would occupy for the next three centuries. In this performance, the City Voices, Oriana Singers, and Ars Antigua join together for “Alleluja! Lobet den Herren”, a setting of Psalm 150.
