BACH MASS IN B MINOR: KYRIE Hengelbrock

[Denoheatwave]

Amazing Quality!!!

[papagaio1696]

I've listened to the vast list of the Mass by the most prestigious maestros. This version is by far the best. The tempi, the intensity, and the lack of "famous" lead singers turns it into the best choice. My daughter cried when she was 4 years old listening to this glorious sound. I know it's the intent of Bach and she really felt it

Ça c'est de la musique "absolue".

[rocote4847]

My soul has vibrated from the beginning to the end.

[rocote4847]

This simply the greatest version of the Kyrie on earth. The director brougth Bach's music soul into the musician. It is a great piece of interpretation. The best on earth so far. Thank you VERY much for this moment.

Lovely done...

[oniuqasaile]

I love the directors facial expressions!

If Musician/Actors performed this Mass in B minor with tremendous expression at full blast (like the director), what a performance it would be.

True i dumped religion it more or less failed me. or maybe i it.  But either way listening to Bach. Before i was even notified about religion. Always envisioned him as some kinda God. Or that his music elevated him to such a level. Now being older and with more knowledge i just find it very odd that i thought of him as a God before i truly knew what it was about

@mahelander I agree completely. Balthasar-Neumann-Orchester und Chor are outstanding ensembles. Please note, that JSB had probably only 16 - 20 singers to perform his masterpieces. So the choir is not too small.

I agree. This is the best performance video of the B minor Mass on Youtube. Too bad about the aspect ratio, but thank you very much nonetheless for posting this.

mahelander - indeed one of the BEST performance (and recording) of

Bach's B minor Mass Kyrie on Youtube! - so accurate, crystal clear,

full of expression, astounding !!!

Поют охуенно, но щелчки заёбывают...

[bangsubb]

wow...

[DerekWilliamsMusic]

Great!

[pfric07]

fantastic musis a full christians..

[MrChuckaby]

This is the passion Bach was after. This conductor is brilliant; as are the orchestra and choir.

[nsgvna]

I saw the B-N-E a few years ago doing this. Absolutely astounding. And the choir sang the whole thing without scores.

Klingt ein bischen vegetarisch, oder ??! 

[muurtalo]

It's not in B minor...

[Rik77]

@muurtalo the instruments are pitched slightly lower as its a period ensemble.

[perlowyas]

Bach sollte nicht Bach, sondern Meer heissen

[luigimiu]

I agree with mahelander!

[mahelander]

This is in my mind the best recording on Youtube of the Kyrie in Bach's B minor Mass. A farly small ensemble with flexibility of expression.

[xollyeux]

@mahelander second best!

[larbaud]

Wonderful.
