Nutthaporn Thammathi - Die ungeborenen Enkel - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

On this newest endeavour, the Bogota´ Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of Joachim Gustafsson, turns it's attention towards Danish composer August Enna (1859-1939) with renderings of two of his charming orchestral works. Traces of several elements from Enna's musical life converge in the Violin Concerto his background as a violinist and his deep connection to opera meet the tradition of Nordic national romanticism. While Symphony No. 2 may be considered conservative for it's era, it is abundantly rich in it's continuous melodic flow, creating an immediately impactful experience.

The productions of the CD series Edition ZKM, ranging from digital synthesis and algorithmic composition to the integration of live electronics, from radio art to sound installation, encompass a broad spectrum of that locus where digital technology stimulates musical fantasy. InchKaras. KrähenInch is a musical-emotional attempt to make sense of that which, in Asia as well as in the Western world since days of old, has been attributed to ravens. Mayumi Miyata proves her mastery on the Japanese sho by playing the traditional court music Gagaku (sounds that come out of silence and return to it again) and Stäbler's virtuosic compositions. Gerhard Stäbler voice / Mayumi Miyata sho / Johannes Nied double bass / Thomas Oesterdiekhoff percussion.
