Live in St. Thomas Kirche, Leipzig, 24. May 2003.
* Ton Koopman is widely accepted as a leading authority on Baroque music
* Conducting one of Bach's greatest choral works, the Magnificat, as well as one of his most beautiful cantatas
* Including also a lesser-known baroque gem by Bach's predecessor as cantor of the St. Thomas Church, Johann Kuhnau
* Performed at St. Thomas Church, Leipzig, the church for which Bach conceived his works
* Brand new recording - state-of-the-art quality
"For sheer bravura, and an increasingly corporate elan between voices and instruments, the Amsterdam forces are beginning to consolidate on a distinctive timbre and style."
Gramophone Magazine
"Koopman is proving that he compromises not a bit in his musical vision and determination."
