Bach's motets are monoliths of the Baroque and place great artistic and technical demands on their interpreters: so they are in good hands with the Solomon's Knot ensemble under Jonathan Sells. The recording contains all the motets of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), placed here in the context of the music of the previous generation of the Bach dynasty that shaped him.

'This is the first of a series of location-specific Solomon's Knot recording projects. We chose Arnstadt's inspirational Bachkirche for these works, not only for its wonderful acoustic, but also as a place which connects the two Bachs: Johann Christoph was born in Arnstadt, and Johann Sebastian's first job as an organist was at the church, which came to be named after him.' \r

'the vocal declamation is full of character and the continuo support where called for of Jan Zahourek (violone) and Pawl Siwczak is stylish' \x96 BBC Music Magazine (4 STARS)

'Although each motet has its own distinct character, the cumulative effect has been to create a glorious epitome of Baroque choral polyphony [\x85]. Magical! Solomon's Knot are to be congratulated on their refreshing advocacy. A highly rewarding venture.' \x96 Gramophone
