Paert / Martinaitis / Nystedt / Schmidt- Sacred Songs of Life & Love
This Pentatone release was recorded in the grand acoustical environment of St. Joseph Cathedral in Sioux Falls, SD by an ensemble whose typical performance is never less than sublime, the first-rate South Dakota Chorale. Sacred Songs of Life and Love features some of the most beautiful work in contemporary Scandinavian and Baltic choral music, including Arvo Pärt's Sieben Magnificat Antiphonen, selections from Knut Nystedt's Prayers of Kierkegaard, Sven-David Sandström's Four Songs of Love and Algirdas Martinaitis' Alleuia. "We hope that this collection will take you through a full range of human emotions. This music is full of peace, joy, hope and love, and we hope it will fill your heart and ears with much of the same". - Brian A. Schmidt, SD Chorale Conductor and Artistic Director.
