Michael Praetorius. Christmas Music

Christian Century, Dec 14, 2004

Michael Praetorius. Christmas Music. Westminster Cathedral Choir and The Parley of Instruments, directed by David Hill. Hyperion 66200, $17. Eight motets (including the familiar "Es ist ein' Ros' entsprungen") contrast with two seven-minute sets of dances from the Terpsichore collection. The choir of boys and men produces a bright sound, and the instrumentalists are some of the London area's finest, from 1986. Full details and notes are at www.hyperionrecords.co.uk/details/66200.asp.>
