FRIEDRICH WILHELM ZACHOW (1663-1712): Meine Seel' erhebt den Herren, Herr, wenn ich nur dich habe, Preiset mit mir den Herren, Lobe den Herrn, meine Seele.

Description: Handel's only teacher gets his first disc all to himself in the first of a promised series from this new special-import Dutch label. There's a reason people mistook Zachow's cantatas for those of his pupil: he was extremely talented, as these further four works testify. German texts. Constanze Backes (soprano), Capella Frisiae, Accademia Amsterdam; Ludger Remy.
