"While all of the voices are ideally matched and perfectly integrated into a lovely ensemble sound (not to mention the absolute precision of phrasing and articulation of rhythms-the challenging Jagdlied, for example!), the sopranos must be cited for such consistently gorgeous, uniformly pure quality of tone, unfailingly accurate in difficult leaps (Die Waldvögelein) and never overemphasizing a line or high-register pitch. This is first-class singing, captured in equally first-rate sound (from Berlin's Jesus-Christus-Kirche)-and if you want to fall in love with Mendelssohn's choral writing, this is where it will happen. Highly recommended!" 10/10 Classics Today
'The most natural music of all occurs when four people go out together in the woods or in a boat, and carry the music with them and inside them!' (Mendelssohn, 1839). These pieces for chorus, sparkling musical miniatures, are perhaps the finest illustration of this profession of artistic faith.
