In 2007 Ton Koopman completed a universally acclaimed set of recordings covering the complete cantatas of J. S. Bach, the last volume of which, (CC72222), recently received a BBC Music Magazine Award. With this latest release of Vocal Works, (Volume 3), he has now finished his series of recording of the works of Dieterich Buxtehude. As with the two previous volumes he directs the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra and Choir and several highly regarded soloists, amongst which are the soprano Johannette Zomer, the alto Bogna Bartosz, the tenor Jörg Dürmüller, and the bass Klaus Mertens. The 2CD set features arias, concertos and cantatas, including two substantial works, “Eins bitte ich vom Herrn“, BuxWV 24, and “Herzlich lieb hab ich dich, o Herr“, BuxWV 41.
