The Windsbacher Knabenchor’s second choral CD delves into our rich heritage and draws our attention to something which, reflected in the almost inestimable number of printed German hymns, has proved central to life and faith down the centuries: namely communal singing. It has provided a companion to take us through the liturgical year. The selection reflects those hymns that are an essential part of the church service. Furthermore, they are anchored in the consciousness of successive generations: usually the tunes rather than all the words.
