The Monteverdi Choir performed Bach family motets in London and Leipzig in June 2024. The concerts also featured Bach’s Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin performed by Kati Debretzeni (London) and Isabelle Faust (Leipzig).
Leipziger Volkszeitung: "The Monteverdi Choir, led by Jonathan Sells...proves its extraordinary class: an unearthly purity of intonation, unparalleled clarity of articulation, playful word-painting – all singing virtuosically, highly individually yet perfectly integrated into a soundscape of boundless dynamic range and brilliance."
Musicologie: "The systematic play in responses is spectacular...Beauty that saves the world!"
Reaction on social media:
