Tidings of Joy |Christmas with the Voktett Hannover
Festive compositions a cappella
Künstler: Helmut Fuchs, Matthias Grünert
Komponisten: Johann Wilhelm Hertel

Like twinkling starlight, the joyful tidings of Christmas run through centuries of music – from Bethlehem’s night sky to the present day. In their new album “Tidings of Joy”, the eight singers of the Voktett Hannover present a selection of Christmas music in sophisticated a cappella settings. The recording contains works by well-known composers such as Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Gottfried Wolters, Hugo Distler, Heinrich Schütz, Michael Praetorius, Max Reger and Peter Cornelius, arranged by Clytus Gottwald (*1925). Contemporary settings and equally familiar melodies come from Sebastian Knappe (*1989), David Willcocks (1919-2015), James Lord Pierpont (1822-1893) and Irving Berlin (1888-1989), among others, in the arrangement by Jeremy Davies.
