We belong to the earth, introduced by his text, which consists of words by the Indian chief Seattle and a verse from the Bible (Job 36, verse 4), in nature-like and aural impressions of the primeval vagueness and the later material reality of the different peoples. The four-part mixed-voice choir is joined by a varied ensemble of percussion instruments, with vibraphone, cowbells and thunder stick in the foreground. At its concludion: Perhaps we are all brothers? We shall see! this piece, with its emphasis on percussion, is a fascinating work of our time.

Bach's B minor Mass is among the greatest and most ambitious works of all time. The various stages of composition of the Mass occupied the composer for over two decades: beginning with the Sanctus (1724), by way of the Missa of 1733, to the remaining movements of the Ordinary, which were composed during his last years. Thus the Mass, in its wealth of forms with arias, duets, as well as concertante and fugal choruses, displays the essence of Bach's skill and personal style. The greatest musical work of art of all times and all peoples (to quote the enthusiastic Hans Georg Nageli, who first edited the Mass in 1818) and one of the most demanding choral works in the repertoire is presented by Frieder Bernius, the Kammerchor Stuttgart and the Barockorchester Stuttgart in a stellar recording based on the principles of historical performance practice (Carus 83.211). Awarded the Gramophone - Editor's Choice. Score available separately - see item CA.3123200.
