Andreas Scholl - Tuma: Moetes & Cantatas

Andreas Scholl, the Czech Ensemble Baroque and Roman Válek, introduce us to the splendid works of Frantisek Tuma - a little-known Czech composer who was a prominent musical figure in the 18th century. The musicians here perform several of his emblematic motets and cantatas composed for Elisabeth Christine of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, embracing Tuma's splendid invention and intensity of expression.
