About

It was in 1680 that the organist of the Marienkirche in Lubeck wrote this highly unusual work. In the course of this cycle of cantatas, the imaginary observer of Christ’s sufferings gradually directs his gaze upwards, from the feet (cantata no.1, Ad pedes) to the face (cantata no.7: Ad faciem). A classic of German Baroque sacred music. This title was released for the first time in 2006.

Early Music Review February 2015

This was one of the first attempts at a one-to-a-part MJN and remains one of the best. Cantus Colln were on top form here.

10th March 2006

It's a curiously beautiful work, and somewhat less morbid than you might imagine...The performances, with Conrad Junghänel conducting his Cantus Cölln, are flawless.
