ORLANDO: AMORE, GELOSIA, FOLLIA

Latvian Radio Choir, Sigvards Klava

Ondine is proud to release its 17th album together with the award-winning Latvian Radio Choir and conductor Sigvards K?ava dedicated to a cappella words by Anton Brucker. Anton Bruckner (1824–1896) is known as one of the greatest of 19th century symphonists. Yet, also choral music formed an integral part of the composer’s output. This album includes a selection of smaller choral works written between the years 1848 and 1892. Many of these works were long forgotten. Yet after a long stretch on the periphery of the choral world, Bruckner’s motets have now finally returned to a broader consciousness.

Bruckner:
 Ave Maria (1861), WAB 6
 Christus factus est, WAB 11
 Locus iste, WAB 23 
 Os justi meditabitur sapientiam
 Pange lingua
 Tantum ergo in D major, WAB 32
 Tantum ergo in D major, WAB 42
 Tota pulchra es, antiphon, WAB 46
 Vexilla regis
 Virga Jesse floruit
