Motets

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Eric Ericsons Kammarkör & Drottningholms Barockensemble

Motets is a collection of sacred choral works by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed in the early-to-mid 18th century. The pieces employ dense counterpoint, varied vocal and choral textures from four-part writing to double-choir arrangements and exemplify Baroque sacred style while occupying a central place in Bach's vocal and liturgical oeuvre.
First released: 1992
