"Freude, schöner Götterfunken!" ("Joy, fair sparks of the gods") seems to be the cry of the fifth and penultimate Platte by the Camerata Limburg of the complete recording of Schubert's works for male choir. The title of the program is "Elysium", which says it all. This recording is a pleasurable stroll through heavenly realms: known and unknown, from poems by Schiller, Klopstock and many, many other wonderful poets. The interpretation is on par with the entire collection: an immaculate ensemble sound and an interpretation wonderfully worked out by conductor Jan Schumacher and his masters. © Genuin
