Bayerische Kammerphilharmonie - In the Spirit of Freedom - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

In a time of widespread crisis and social upheaval, this album by the title InchIn The Spirit of FreedomInch by composer and musicologist Joachim Brugge aims above all to emphasize the idea of inspiring subjects - instead of stagnation through mainstream and routine. The idea of freedom naturally forms the indispensable prerequisite for a self-determined life, as shown in the first piece InchIn The Spirit of FreedomInch, with references to Ludwig van Beethoven and Walt Whitman. InchIn The Spirit of BrahmsInch thematizes an adaptation of individual works by Johannes Brahms, such as some waltzes from Op. 39 and the Violin Concerto, Op. 77. InchIn The Spirit of HistoryInch reflects the seemingly self-evident availability of almost 1000 years of music history in the digital age, with a recourse from the Middle Ages (Perotin) to the 19th century (Edvard Grieg). Finally, InchIn The Spirit of Fairy TalesInch opens up a final perspective on motifs from Finnish fairy tales (in the spirit of Jean Sibelius), with a broad spectrum of fascinating characters, stories and music. The chamber ensemble Bayerische Kammerphilharmonie is conducted by Alexander Drcar, and is supported by soloists Thomas Oberleitner, trumpet, Rodrigo Alegre Vargas, tenor und Monja Heuler, harmonica.
