Montreal ensembles revisit a master

Bach. But Saturday's Boston Early Music Festival concert by the paired Montreal based ensembles Les Voix Humaines and Les Voix Baroques demonstrated the powerful qualities particular to Buxtehude's music,replica cartier love bracelet rose.

At times, Buxtehude seems a Francis Ford Coppola to Bach's Spielberg: more flamboyantly operatic, more attuned to moment by moment emotion than architectonics. The cantata "Nimm von uns, Herr du treuer Gott" surpasses Bach's exercises in that genre in impulsiveness and stylization the stalking violins (Scott Metcalfe and Chloe Meyers) behind the opening plea for mercy; the precipitation of key words out of the manifold texture into anthemic pronouncements.

Throughout, the performance emphasized individual expression over a homogenized sound, giving contrapuntal lines a vibrant, multi dimensional flow. Conducting from the organ, Christopher Jackson kept the musicians in collective empathetic contact; kaleidoscopic shifts from viols (Margaret Little and Susie Napper, the core of Les Voix Humaines, with M Corriveau and, briefly, Elin S to violone (Pierre Cartier) to theorbo (Lucas Harris) felt intrinsic and spontaneous.

In the two movement voice and organ Missa Brevis, Buxtehude adopts imitative Renaissance textures, albeit with chains of sweet Italianate thirds between the two sopranos and a thoroughly up to date chromatic "Amen." The singers Suzie LeBlanc, Catherine Webster, Matthew White (Les Voix Baroques' director),replica cartier yellow gold love bracelet, Colin Balzer, and Nathaniel Watson also made a virtue out of their varying timbres. White's warm alto and Blazer's focused, fluent tenor mediated between the sopranos' straight tones (LeBlanc's sine wave purity, Webster's organ pipe flute) and Watson's robust,replica cartier new bracelet, flexible baritone.

After intermission came a masterpiece, "Membra Jesu Nostri," a cycle of seven cantatas, each focused on part of the crucified Christ's body: feet, knees, hands, side, breast, heart, face. Emotional directness gives it an intimate aura uncluttered choral textures communicate the texts (devotional poetry framed by biblical quotations) with rich clarity, while solo arias, their floridity tempered by measured phrasing, crystallize each passing mood. Even the predictable seems new Buxtehude describes the wounds in Christ's hands with expected expressionist dissonance,replica love bracelet screw, but the way stacks of keening suspensions melt into a gentle cadence is a gorgeous surprise. The final "Amen" once again brings the extroverted public Buxtehude back to the stage, but to complement, rather than cancel, the personal statement of faith: The group encored it to punctuate the evening.
