J. Brahms - Brahms: Die Schone Magelone Op.60 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The album InchMidnight StoriesInch contains Polish contemporary music, which consists of completely new works of Polish composers of the young generation, specially created for the band Art'n'Voices. These different compositions combine the theme of the night common to all songs. These are compositions in different languages, including Polish, English, German, Latin and Kashubian, performed by the a cappella band. The vocal band Art'n'Voices was formed in 2010. It consists of musicians who have been associated with the choral scene of the Tri-City and Wejherowo and the Academy of Music in Gdansk for years. The band's official seat is the Kashubian-Pomeranian Literature and Music Museum in Wejherowo. The octet specializes in performing a cappella music. In his repertoire he has music of different periods from the Renaissance, however, it is dominated by compositions of contemporary music, a significant part of which was written especially for the band.

The self-discovery of a composer is dependent not least of all on a successful mediation process between stylistic considerations of the historical moment and personal stylistic preoccupations. The solutions are arrived at in various ways, moving between the poles of hermetically sealed self-indulgence and a constant willingness to adapt. Bialas retained his individual character as a composer throughout the various stylistic changes he experienced in the course of his work. Siegfried Mauser piano / Christian Altenburger violin / Barbara Westphal viola / Julius Berger violoncello / Auryn-Quartett.
