On the CD Musicalischer Seelen-Frieden Dorothee Mields and Hamburger Ratsmusik present several of the most beautiful solo cantatas of the baroque composer Johann Philipp Krieger. Krieger understood how to unite French and Italian elements of style in his music and thus as a composer he was an important role model for the generation in which Bach and Telemann were active. His altogether twenty sacred concertos from the collection Musikalischer Seelen-Frieden, the only edition of Krieger’s sacred music, which was printed in 1990 and 1996, is among the most important contributions to this important genre in his time. Many of these concerto are recorded here for the first time. Some of his most important trios sonatas round out the CD.

Johann Philipp Krieger (16491725) combined French and Italian style elements and so he became an important model for the generation of composers like Johann Sebastian Bach and Georg Philipp Telemann. Dorothee Mields and the Ensemble Hamburger Ratsmusik conducted by Simone Eckert present some examples from the 20 solo cantatas collection ‘Musikalischer Seelen Frieden’ (Musical peace of mind), which is considered to be his most important vocal music. The trio sonatas Op. 2 complete this CD and so present a musical profile of this important precursor of Bach and Telemann.
