I fully agree. I've discovered the composer just today, but in several of his works

works, I already noticed he is reaching to the heavens in a very delictate way, which I've so far thought to be unique for Bach.

A couple years ago, there was very little Zelenka on YouTube. Now there's quite a lot. He's finally getting some recognition and a lot more of his works are being performed. Zelenka is still very underrated, but I think in a decade or two, that will not be the case. Is it overstating matters to call him the Catholic Bach?
