About
The composer's description of the work was “A Symphony- Cantata on Words of the Holy Bible, for Soloists, Chorus and Orchestra”. Structurally, it consists of three purely orchestral movements followed by 11 movements for chorus and/or soloists and orchestra, and lasts approximately 65–70 minutes in total. Marcus Bosch and his colleagues bring this work powerfully alive on this latest Coviello ‘live recording’ Hybrid SACD.
