Magnificat
Program: Biscuits & Bach
Aired: Sunday, November 10, 2019 @ 7:00 am
Hosted by Rachel Stewart
German composer Michael Praetorius wrote treatises and created collections of music that give us a lot of information about 17th century music in Germany. He wrote a number of settings for Protestant hymns as well as a Magnificat which were recorded in 1992 by Belgian group, Huelgas Ensemble, who specialize in early polyphony, and their founder/leader Paul Van Nevel. This week we'll hear their performances of Magnificat as well as a select number of Lutheran hymns.
