If you would rather receive certain items more quickly, please place them on a separate order.
If any unexpected delays occur, we will keep you informed of progress via email and not allow other items on the order to be held up.

[Lionel] Meunier and [producer Jérôme] Lejeune have gradually researched and devised an ingenious reversal of perspectives. They take the piecemeal scriptures from the Bible and the Apocrypha that Brahms abridged for use throughout his seven movements as the impetus for their own parallel programme of early German Baroque settings of the same (or similar) words for Vox Luminis’s ‘Ein deutsches Barockrequiem’. ... Throughout this meticulously plotted alternative perspective on mostly familiar texts, Vox Luminis’s squad of up to 15 voices sing with the utmost sincerity of expression. 
The fruits of their research, superbly captured in the church of Notre-Dame in Gedinne in Belgium, are uniformly moving and instructive, the more so because the performances are exceptional; the balance and nuance in both singing and playing (notably Bart Jacobs’s organ) are extraordinary.
