A real discovery. As a pupil of Heinrich Schütz, Caspar Kittelis a representative of one of the most important traditions inseventeenth-century German music. His printed collection from 1638 is avery successful mixture of German and Italian elements. With the poemsof Martin Opitz, Kittel set the best German-language texts that histime had to offer. The attention to the subtleties of the language, theevocation of nature’s moods, and the exploration of human emotions inthe areas of love, growing-old, and death are of great artistic quality.
