description
Having published Gebel's cantatas for Boxing Day and the First Sunday after Christmas (Vol. 1, cpo 777 610-2; Vol. 2, 653 88 68), we now present his cantatas from the 1747-48 cycle that he wrote for church services on New Year's Day and the First Sunday after Epiphany. These large-scale Christmas cantatas appear for the first time on disc. Once again, as in the St John Passion (also released by cpo), we can admire the »unparalleled« harmonies, »modern« melodies and artfully intricate counterpoint of Gebel's distinctive and novel idiom. Gebel was an artist of genius whose tragic early death unfortunately condemned him – almost! – to oblivion. As klassik-heute. com put it (December 2010), »Gebel's grandiose music alone is enough to make this CD an essential item in the library of every connoisseur of the Baroque.
