Baroque Christmas in Hamburg

After CPO's delightful recording of Advent and Christmas Music by Michael Praetorius (777327-2), the Bremen Barock Consort under Manfred Cordes recorded a second disc of Christmas music by composers of Hamburg. The disc includes a rich collection of repertoire written for the Christmas High Church Feast. Composers on the disc include Hieronymus Praetorius and his father Jacob Praetorius as well as Thomas Selle and Johann Philipp Förtsch.
