Da capo

In recent months I have received several requests for re-uploads. Rather than answering to every request separately I have decided to devote this week to a collection of requested re-uploads. The new links are at the respective pages.

If you want me to re-upload a concert previously posted here, please send me an email at tcadfael@gmail.com. Often a request is left in the comment box to the posting; comments are forwarded to me, but unfortunately without a link to the posting it concerns. That makes it impossible to identify the concert which is requested.

Enjoy the music!

Several oratorios by Rolle as recorded by Hermann Max have been released on CD. Unfortunately Der leidende Jesus is not one of them. Despite a slight disturbance in one of the recitatives - for which I apologize - I have decided to upload this nice work, as part of my series of postings with music for Passiontide.
