Johann Valentin Meder

Lauda Jerusalem Dominum

Quid est hoc quod sentio

Ach Herr, mich armen Sünder

Gott, mein Herz ist bereit

Die höllische Schlange darf nimmer uns beißen

Wünschet Jerusalem Glück

Vox mitte clamorem

Wie murren denn die Leut’ im Leben also?

Meine Seele seutzt und stöhnet (Andächtige Communion-Musique)

Gott, du bist derselbe mein König

The Goldberg Baroque Ensemble from Gdansk, conducted by Andrzej Szadejko, presented a magnificent selection of sacred music (Dabringhaus and Grimm) by Meder as part of the Musica Baltica series. The outwardly humble passion cantata ‘Ach, Herr, mich armen Sunder’, which comes close to the best works of Dieterich Buxtehude, is also included, as is the musical celebration of Jesus’ mystical love ‘Vox mitte clamorem’, which simply overflows with dancing, thoroughly Italian sensuality. A true discovery! – Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
