ATMA Classique, Ensemble ArtChoral and Mcnat Musica are proud to present Art choral, Vol. 3: Baroque II with Ensemble ArtChoral under the direction of Matthias Maute.
Featuring choral music by Johann Sebastian Bach and late baroque composers including Johann Ludwig Bach, Jan Dismas Zelanka, and Antonio Lotti, among many others, this album follows last year’s inaugural release, Nol.
The ART CHORAL series is a unique and ambitious project surveying the history of choral singing over six centuries, from the Renaissance to the present day. Consisting of 11 volumes, the series will roll out over the next three years and will feature works by 50 composers from the 16th to the 21st centuries, as well as 11 webcast concerts and 120 videos.
Ensemble ArtChoral (formerly Ensemble vocal Arts-Qubec) is a professional choir whose mission is to present the great tradition of choral singing in Quebec, Canada, and abroad. Following almost 40 years of leadership by founder Yves Courville, in 2018 the choir appointed two-time JUNO Award winner Matthias Maute as its artistic director. The Ensemble received the Opus Award for Musical Event of the Year in 2020. Matthias Maute has achieved international renown as a conductor, recorder and flute player, and composer.
