Likewise, a big fan of Ani Difranco. Her “Up…” album is absolutely amazing for a redbook disc.

Easter is coming to the West, and it is a tradition in my country to listen to this.
TIDAL FLAC 44.1kHz 16bit
Great line.
I agree…
the clinking of glasses in the background makes me want to order a drink!
This is my favourite version. I play it every Good Friday.
Bernarda Fink is my favourite mezzo soprano. I think that her rendition of Erbarme Dich is wonderful!
Qobuz 24/96
Thanks Jonathan, I have added your version to my library, and will listen to it this Friday.
Great. Let you know what you think.
Happy Easter!
Erno, just to let you know, I think that this Qobuz 24/96 version (remastered and released 26/2/21) is also excellent, (maybe even better?)
You’ll note that Bernarda Fink features again, of course!
IMO, this performance of Erbarme Dich is even more sublime…
Thanks Jonathan. I just finished listening your Rene Jacobs version, and liked it a lot too. I still prefer the Philippe Herreweghe one, though. I have put the Nikolaus Harnoncourt version to my library now too. Lined up for listening, probably next Good Friday.
Happy Easter to you too!
Thanks Erno. I suggest that you just listen to Nikolaus Harnoncourt/Bernarda Fink’s version of Erbarme Dich as a taster of what to look forward to next Good Friday…?
IMO, it’s 6.02 minutes of bliss!
