This album presents a unique collection of Christmas music from the library of the Sacro Convento in Assisi, previously inaccessible to researchers. Spanning 700 years, the works offer a glimpse into Assisi’s 18th-century musical culture, heavily influenced by the Neapolitan tradition. Featuring chamber music characterised by its simplicity and contemplative nature, the album showcases forgotten Christmas cantatas brought to life by conductor Werner Ehrhardt and L’Arte Del Mondo. Soprano Ruth Ziesak and trumpeter Reinhold Friedrich, known for their acclaimed performances, add their talents to this captivating rediscovery.
