The first release by the MDR Radio Chorus under director Risto Joost is not just a confession of faith, but truly a confession of sound as well: this presentation of sacred music highlights the impressive contrasts heard in the remarkable acoustics of Leipzig’s Paul Gerhardt Church: distinctive contours from the too-little-known classicist Dmitry Bortniansky feature alongside the monumental and etheric soundscapes of Alfred Schnittke’s Concerto for Choir. Both works bear witness not only to the power of faith, but also of music, interpreted by the MDR Radio Chorus with eloquence, sparkling precision and total commitment.
