Kammerchor Stuttgart - Works a Capella By Daniel-Lesur Ravel Debussy - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Danish cellist, Carl-Oscar Østerlind (b. 1984) is one of his generation ´s most versatile musicians. He has been described by the Los Angeles Times as a Inchsuperb cellistInch and was recently awarded the Danish Arts Council ´s career grant InchDen Unge EliteInch. In 2010 he won the Danish String Competition and was a top prizewinner of the InchLjunggrenska CompetitionInch in Sweden. Carl-Oscar Østerlind appeared as a soloist and chamber musician at festivals such as Ravinia Festival's Steans Music Institute, Piatigorsky Cello Festival, Verbier Festival, Ipalpiti Festival, Prussia Cove ´s InchOpen Chamber MusicInch and Bergen Festspillene. As a concerto soloist, he performed in front of orchestras in Denmark, Sweden, USA and Mexico.

Frieder Bernius and the Kammerchor Stuttgart have taken on one of the most exciting pieces of Passion music in music history InchThe Seven Last Words of Our Savior on the CrossInch must have had a quite extraordinary significance for Haydn himself. After all, he published the work in three different versions and conceived the vocal version recorded here as the crowning finale. The new recording with Anna-Lena Elbert, Sophie Harmsen, Florian Sievers, Sebastian Noack and the Kammerchor Stuttgart under the direction of Frieder Bernius achieves an emotionality that can hardly be surpassed.
