Daniel Reuss - Psalms - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

For their second on Ondine, the acclaimed Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir under chief conductor Daniel Reuss perform Psalm settings by Felix Mendelssohn and Estonian composer Cyrillus Kreek. The first of the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir was given an 'Editor's Choice' accolade by Gramophone. Cyrillus Kreek, a graduate of the St. Petersburg Conservatory and a collector of folk songs, laid the foundation for Estonian professional music. The unique coupling highlights the familiarity between Mendelssohn and Kreek in terms of vocal and harmonic setting. Album Tracks 1. Psalm 100, Jauchzet Dem Herrn, All Welt 2.
