“To my mind, Mortensen’s special performance, which is full to the brim with insightful musicianship and has a refreshing avoidance of contrived formulas, comfortably joins Parrott (EMI), Junghänel and John Butt (Linn) as the finest examples of this kind of perspective on performing Bach’s monumental sacred masterpiece.”
- Gramophone Magazine
“I’ll highlight ‘Confiteor’ (Credo) where the solace derived from the ‘remission of sins’ is realised in Mortensen’s performance with translucent tenderness… [Mortensen’s concertino team] is the strongest I’ve yet heard.”
- Early Music Today
J.S. Bach's famous Mass in B Minor, BWV 232 was one of the last works the composer completed toward the end of his life, and the Lutheran composer's motivations for writing a Catholic work such as this are still unclear. Regardless of its origin, the Mass has long been a favourite with modern audiences, and it is performed here by the renowned early music ensemble Concerto Copenhagen, led by their director and founder Lars Ulrik Mortensen.
