Ayres Extemporae
Erbarme Dich!

A musical journey that describes the human condition: the torment and despair for mistakes made and the acceptance of imperfection and self-forgiveness. The path of personal absolution is explored in arrangements of arias from Bach cantatas addressing the themes of sin, mercy and redemption, set alongside pieces by Locke and Biber that reflect the atmosphere of each moment of the spiritual process.
