SUMMARY:Washington Bach Consort presents Vocal Polyphony: Heinrich Schütz 
 and the German Motet
DESCRIPTION:Heinrich Schütz was arguably the foremost composer of the earl
 y-baroque German motet and the most important German composer before J.S. 
 Bach. After three years of study in Venice with the great Giovanni Gabriel
 i\, Schütz brought early Italian baroque style to German-speaking churche
 s. Vocalists of the Washington Bach Consort under the direction of Dana Ma
 rsh will delve into Schütz’s finest collections: first\, the incomparab
 le Cantiones Sacrae—a cycle of motets with an entirely unique musical l
 anguage—not only when compared with other composers\, but as Joshua Rifk
 in has put it\, even when compared with any other collection of Schütz’
 s own work during his lifetime. Schütz’s Geistliche Chormusik offers 
 some of his most richly popular motets\, which reveal the composer at the 
 top of his craft.\n\nMargarita Brose and Chuck Reifel &amp\; Janie Kinne
 y\, underwriters
