Buxtehude’s cantata cycle which gleams with love for and devotion to the body of Christ is the first joint project of the two famous ensembles, Voces Suaves and Gli Incogniti.

Instead of telling the story of the Passion, in Buxtehude's “Membra Jesu nostri” the viewer's attention focuses on the crucified body - seven cantatas about the parts of Christ's body and their significance for the salvation process. His music wonderfully illustrates devotion and love, alternating between instrumental symphonies, polyphonic sections and short arias for each of the five singers.

In their first collaboration, Voces Suaves and the renowned instrumental ensemble Gli Incogniti under the direction of violinist Amadine Beyer now focus on Buxtehude, J.S. Bach's role model and the most influential German composer of the late 17th century. Together, the two ensembles offer an intimate and expressive interpretation of this unique masterpiece.
