arc 24049 – Warum toben Völker – Psalms in dialogue with music by Ernest Bloch

There is a lot on our minds in these times. The world is out of joint. Efforts towards disarmament, peace and reconciliation seem like yesterday‘s news.

From baroque to contemporary music, from solo programmes to full orchestra – we aim for a broad musical range. Common to all our recordings is an exceptionally high quality of interpretation and recording. In terms of content we focus on the discovery of unknown repertoire and new interpretations. The ensemble ‘Los Temperamentos’ from Bremen has joined us on this journey from beginning, together with the Bremer Barockorchester and artists like the World Trombone Quartet, the flutist Clara Guldberg Ravn or the cellist Mime Yamahiro-Brinkmann.
