Contabile Limburg / Fassbender - Mannergesang: Men's Songs - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Between the Bliss and Me is a wonderful collection of musical settings of poems by the great American poet, Emily Dickinson. The CD gathers compositions which might be familiar to some listeners, particularly the settings composed by Aaron Copland, but there are also works by lesser known composers such as Ernst Bacon, John Duke, Arthur Farwell, Scott Gendel, Lori Laitman and Richard Pearson-Thomas which add an extra dimension to Dickinson's genius. Unlike most modern art song, the songs on this CD have a refreshing melodic quality.

Bearthoven - Trios [COMPACT DISCS] date 05/05/2017

With it's latest GENUIN production, Camerata Musica Limburg, one of the best male choirs of our time, demonstrates it's enormous versatility choruses and solo lieder by Christian Ridil are on the program. The stylistic range of this outstanding musician and music educator is wide from student choirs inspired by Romanticism to humorous settings for celebrations and Heine's gloomy Belsatzar. The baritone Nikolaus Fluck, originally a member of the choir, sings moving psalm settings and love songs. Under the direction of Jan Schumacher the Camerata demonstrates it's best side spotlessly clean and sonorous - no question why this choir is a welcome guest at festivals worldwide!
