About this product
The German composer Georg Schumann (1866-1952) is already well represented in the cpo catalog, with two symphonies, several orchestral works, two chamber music productions, a lied recital, and a piano recital - a collection that offers an unrivaled overview of this significant composer's output. Now, this impressive catalog is enriched with Schumann's undisputed magnum opus the oratorio Ruth, for four soloists, choir, and orchestra, based on the eponymous book of the Old Testament. The premiere of this work on December 9, 1908, in Hamburg was a tremendous success, with enthusiasm spreading rapidly across the Atlantic to the United States. Conceived, it seems, as an ethical counterpart to the decadent Salome by Schumann's contemporary Richard Strauss, this Inchhymn to loveInch is now experiencing a glorious revival after nearly eight decades of neglect.

Pianist Sam Post has been a Bach acolyte since his earliest years behind the keys. His study and development have led Post down many musical avenues, but Bach's lessons remain ever present in his work, as can be heard on Post's new , Post Bach, a collection of the pianist's unique interpretations of a number of the maestro's preludes and fugues, as well as original pieces that blend Bach's harmonic ideas with syncopated styles that have become Post's focus of late.
