The CD "Rosenkranzsonaten 2 - Sonaten VI-X" presents a selection from the famous cycle of Rosary Sonatas, interpreted with great stylistic sensitivity by Anne Schumann (violin) and Sebastian Knebel (keyboard). With a focus on sonatas VI to X, this recording explores the emotional and spiritual range of the work: from meditative and intimate passages to dramatic, virtuosic moments. The historically informed performance on period instruments (or in historically oriented style) emphasizes the rich tonal colors, the rhetorical phrasing, and the finely chiseled articulation of the Baroque repertoire. Each sonata unfolds like a musical contemplation, with expressive melodic lines in the violin and a nuanced, supportive continuo realization.
Anne Schumann, a specialist in early music and historically informed performance, is known for her refined tone, stylistic clarity, and her work with renowned early music ensembles and projects. Sebastian Knebel has made a name for himself as a versatile continuo player and interpreter of Baroque and Classical keyboard literature, appreciated for his sensitive accompaniment and intelligent musical shaping. Together, they form a closely attuned duo whose interplay is characterized by precision, warmth, and a deep understanding of Baroque rhetoric.
