Hervorragende Wiedergabe dieser Kantaten, sehr empfehlenswert
Wir hatten im Aachener Dom die letzte der 4 Kantaten mit der Gächinger Cantorey vor Weihnachten gehört - eine erste Begegnung mit Telemann-Kantaten.Spontan haben wir über Amazon diese Aufführung bestellt und sind sehr begeistert! Ein totaler Genuss und sehr gute Solisten.
