About This Song
About "Bach, J.S.: Magnificat in D Major, BWV 243: II. Et exultavit spiritus meus" by Sigiswald Kuijken
‘Et exultavit’ leaps like a child released into spring: Kuijken’s soprano is clear and buoyant, the orchestra skipping beneath. The joy is not loud but bright—a spirit spinning upward, held in the gentle architecture of Baroque counterpoint, weightless and sure.
