About this product
During the time of Johann Sebastian Bach, death was part of everyday life. The ensemble il capriccio and the countertenor Franz Vitzthum offer the Thomaskantor's musical perspective on life and death on their new GENUIN . The texts of the recorded arias and chorale arrangements by Bach deal with death, eternity and the promise of eternal life. The musicians juxtapose the works, some of which have been carefully arranged, with selected sections from the Art of Fugue. The result is an artistic and moving musical tapestry, interpreted by Franz Vitzthum and the ensemble il capriccio with intensity and sensitivity.

Trained under the guidance of A. Scorpione, D.A. Giordani and F.A. Urio, Francesco M. Benedetti is Chapel Master in Assisi, friend of G. Tartini and confrere of Father Martini. The complex counterpoint of his music closely recalls Bachian characteristics which, however, give way to galant elements that in some points result in a pre-classical language. Dense and virtuosic ornamentations typical of the performance practice of the time support the theories on the ornamentation practice of the time. The young Berlin baroque ensemble Musica Colorata consists of seven musicians and is particularly dedicated to the baroque music of the 17th and 18th centuries. With a lot of passion they search for unknown Italian and German compositions and present them with all their wonderful timbres on historical instruments.
