July 2007

The case for one-to-a-part Bach is well established nowadays. It works particularly well for the rich textures of the right-part motets, and the expanded Hilliard Ensemble sings them superbly. And, as one may expect from the Hilliard Ensemble, the intonation here is exemplary throughout.
