Ton Koopman - Weihnachten mit Herman van Veen & Ton Koopman on CD

Description

With his newly revived repertoire, Dutch singer-songwriter Herman van Veen proves yet again that he is a highly empathetic storyteller, interpreting the famous Christmas story in a delightfully fresh form that sounds as if he had written the songs himself. His versions of the story, now joyful, now reflective, in that inimitable van Veen style of his, together with the refined arrangements featuring strings, flutes, oboe, lute and organ, make this recording under the musical direction of Ton Koopman a legendary jewel of recording history.
