This reconstructed Easter Mass consists exclusively of compositions by Praetorius following the WolfenbÃ©ttel Church Constitution of 1569-a document that enables US to experience an Easter Mass in the order and with the parts that it would have celebrated during Praetorius' term as chapel master. A finely elaborated concept! This CD inaugurates the first of 4 albums in a new CPO series entitled Renaissance in the North.
