Description:

A Collection of Sacred Music Born in 17th-Century Europe, a Time of TurmoilSeventeenth-century Europe was a period shaken by war, plague, and social unrest. This album is a collection of sacred songs centered on the theme of the quest for peace of mind, born out of that turbulent era. Through psalm settings and sacred concertos by Krieger, Schtz, Buxtehude, Rosenmller, and others, it portrays anguish, prayer, hope, and trust in God. Combining exquisite vocal expression with the warm tones of period instruments, this album offers spiritual solace that resonates deeply with modern listeners across the ages.PROSPERO
