Awards and reviews
October 2006
Kuijken is uncompromisingly in the 'one-voice-to-a-part' camp for Bach cantatas… BWV178 strongly supports the solo-voice principle with a movement comprising chorale phrases interrupted by three fragments of recitative. First come two stunning arias for bass, followed by a glorious trio sonata - oboes d'amore and bass - wrapped around the tenor's chorale phrases.
October 2006
…Kuijken espouses the one-to-a-part approach in the choruses. The results are persuasive since there is no point-making in La Petite Bande's easy balance between voices and instruments. …a refreshing alternative approach to the virtuoso homogeneity of recent cantata performance.
