Latest Acclaim
"The ringing baritone voice of William Sharp was highlighted in Cantata BWV 158, especially in his compelling duet with Lamoreaux, ‘Welt, ade,' accompanied by Watt and Field in a particularly virtuosic obbligato. Sharp and Lamoreaux also sang beautifully in Bach's short but sweet A Major Mass, also known as a Missa Brevis. Short because it sets only the Kyrie and Gloria sections required by Lutheran usage, sweet in its sheer nobility and tenderness." — Morning Call
