The "Sacrae Cantiones" of Samuel Scheidt (1587-1654) are not as often performed today as the "Symphoniae Sacrae" of his contemporary Heinrich Schütz (1585-1672) or the "Musae Sioniae " of Michael Praetorius (1571-1621), but it's not because Scheidt's vocal/instrumental work is uninteresting or inferior. This electrifying performance of nine of Scheidt's grandest polychoral settings of German hymns proves his stature, if not quite as sublime as Schütz at least as accomplished as Praetorius. Musicologists and musicians have paid far more attention to Scheidt's seminal role as the first internationally significant German composer for the organ than to his vocal works, and most of "us" today would first have encountered Scheidt in the popular transcriptions of his organ music for modern brass ensemble. If you're a brass player or fan, it may come as a surprise to discover how magnificent a composer of vocal/instrumental music Scheidt was.

Along with Schütz and Johann Hermann Schein (1586-1630) – the Three SCHs! – Scheidt is widely credited with introducing Italian musical styles into North Europe. Frankly, that's an unfair slight to the developed musical world of Germany before 1600. Many of the most skilled instrumentalists in Italy before 1600, especially wind players, were in fact Germans, and though their names are mostly forgotten, those instrumentalists had already transmitted the influence of Italy to the lands that are now Germany and Poland. Hence the very characteristic use of obbligato instruments in the large-scale sacred works of Praetorius and Scheidt, in which "recitativo with basso continuo", the fundamental Italian style, is rare. Scheidt's Cantiones Sacrae sound as German as Hasenpfeffer or Stollen …
