About
Jean-Claude Malgoire and the Grande Ecurie de la Chambre du Roy are joined by the most renowned soloists of the famed Choeur de Chambre de Namur. Their rendition of Saint Matthew overflows with fervour and authenticity in what is, surprisingly, Jean-Claude Malgoire’s first recording. An extensive 68-page booklet contains the complete German text and its French and English translations.
NB: CAL9424/5 on the spine of this CD is wrong; the correct catalogue no. is CAL9431/2, located on the back of the CD and which corresponds to the barcode.
