Relaxing and heavenly music from the early 17th century for choir and small ensemble by Jacob, Hieronymus and Michael Praetorius. The Balthasar-Neumann-Ensemble and Balthasar-Neumann-Chor (founded by Thomas Hengelbrock) is one of the most prestigious and famous early music ensembles. It can definitely be considered as one of the best groups in the world of early music.

Michael Praetorius can be considered as one of the leading German composers of the early 17th century (The familiar harmonization of “Es ist ein Ros entsprungen“ (Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming) was written by him in 1609).

Pablo Heras-Casado leads the Balthasar-Neumann-Chor and Ensemble on his latest featured release on the Deutsche Grammophon label, Praetorius. The album highlights early 17th century works by Jacob, Hieronymus, and Michael Praetorius; the latter is considered one of the most significant German composers of the era. Heras-Casado first established an interest in the repertoire as a young conductor, researching repertoire in the Spanish National Library:

“When I was nineteen, I was keen to prepare some concerts that would include Protestant music from the period before Bach, an important period in European musical history . . . Since then I have been fascinated by this repertory. For me, to record these pieces with the Balthasar-Neumann-Chor und -Ensemble is a dream come true.”

Thanks for sharing the music.
... however, without log, it's difficult to know how this material has been prepared. It is definitely not a EAC rip from a standard CD. Not all track lengths correspond to CD frame boundary. The 44.1 kHz sound appears to be normalized with no headroom, probably converted from high-res sound, and with inverted phase.
