About "Bach, JS: Magnificat in D Major, BWV 243: VIII. Aria. "Deposuit potentes de sede"" by Christoph Prégardien

Prégardien's 'Deposuit potentes' is a stern, buoyant aria from Bach's Magnificat. The text's toppling of the mighty is rendered with crisp, righteous energy—a voice that strides through celestial courts, equal parts humility and quiet triumph.
