Sleepers awake to heavenly joy!

The American Bach Soloists, directed by Jeffrey Thomas, performance of three "favorite" cantatas of J.S. Bach can only awake the musical soul to heavenly joy! Played on period instruments, the performances would surely have old Bach smiling if he could listen to an Ipod today :) This is indeed the marriage of the highest dramatic Lutheran church music with the absolute best musicians possible. The performances simply glow with a joyful light that penetrates every aria, chorus, recititave and choral. Cantata 140, "Wachet auf, ruft und die Stimme", the famous "Sleepers Awake" has a detailed word painting and a tonal palette that makes you feel as if you have somehow entered the paradise of Bach's own perfectly clear musical mind. The following two Cantatas are No. 78 and No. 80 make it apparent that Herr Thomas has directed the American Bach soloists to produce music of perfect clarity. Yes! "Awaken and arise sleepers to a call from a lofty tower . . ." as the first verse from Cantata 140 entreats, this is an album well worth purchasing that can awaken you to heavenly musical joy!
