With Chorwerk Ruhr and Capella de la Torre, Florian Helgath's new recording focuses on motets from the late 16th century. The collection of the early Baroque master Erhard Bodenschatz, published for the first time in 1603, illustrates the then new typesetting technique of the Baroque in a clearly understandable way in chants mostly by German or Italian masters. The young J.S. Bach heard and studied these works, which were around 100 years old.

The album will be available from October 2021 in stores and on popular streaming portals.

Wolfenbüttel sings with you!

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart "Requiem" (supplemented by Michael Ostrzyga, 2019)
Chorwerk Ruhr / concerto Cologne under the direction of Florian Helgath (grade 1)
corviello classics 2020


The event of the new recording is anyway the interpretation by Chorwerk Ruhr and Concerto Köln under the direction of Florian Helgath, who sets new records with his equally inspired, slim, energetic and expressive design. The choir is brilliant, always sounding transparent, dynamic, wide, but without extravagance, and making the melodic progress crystal clear.

Florian Helgath sets strong accents, but always keeps his measure, does not derail in exaggerations like celebrated stars à la Currentzis & Co. Together with the no less excellent Concerto Köln and a balanced soloist quartet, the recording deserves a top place in every discotheque.
