Miriam Feuersinger - Strattner: Sacred Concertos (2021)

These sacred concertos are characterized by the Italian stile concertato and translate the German texts artfully, polyphonically into catchy musical themes. Stylistically and qualitatively, Strattner's music is roughly comparable to that of Johann Rosenmüller and forms an important link between Schütz and Bach. It is a pity that Strattner's career came to a scandalous end after only a few years due to a trial for adultery and banishment from Frankfurt, and that this hopeful composer fell into complete oblivion. Miriam Feuersinger, Monika Mauch (sopranos), Alexander Schneider (alto), Daniel Schreiber (tenor), Markus Flaig (bass). Les Escapades; Cosimo Stawiarski.
