About this product
Big Data - the title reveals the defining themes of this recording! The Decoder Ensemble considers the possibilities and consequences of the limitless availability of media in the digital age. All of the pieces here focus in different ways on common contemporary practices like remixing, copying & pasting, sampling, and recycling. An involvement with these techniques is natural for the members of Decoder, three of whom are themselves composers. The group, founded in 2011, calls itself a Inchband for contemporary musicInch and is actively involved in the newest musical developments and trends including electronics, computer techniques, multimedia, and elements of pop and rock music. The idea for this grew out of the group's InchBig Data WeekendInch. According to clarinetist Carola Schaal, this was a small festival Inchorganized in 2017 by the Decoder Ensemble for which the group commissioned eight works dealing with the theme of remix. We chose several of those works for this album, as well as a piece by Brigitta Muntendorf that seems to us to fit perfectly with the others.Inch

![Viardot / Owens / Turgenev - Dernier Sorcier - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/7bdbce94-bdee-47b4-926e-563c5e353258.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
150 years after it's composition, a lost opera is recovered and a vanished voice restored. A recently rediscovered treasure by one of the most compelling artists of the nineteenth century, Le dernier sorcier (The Last Sorcerer) resonates with themes of power and progress, gender and equality, and the restoration of natural order in an ever-changing world - a feminist eco-fable in operatic form. The work is a chamber opera in two acts written by Pauline Viardot to a French libretto by Ivan Turgenev. It premiered privately in 1867 at the Villa Turgenev in Baden-Baden and received it's first public performance at the Court Theatre in Weimar in April 1869. The story focuses on Krakamiche, an old and once-powerful sorcerer whose presence in the woods has upset the elves living there, and a romance between the sorcerer's daughter Stella and Prince Lelio, whose marriage comes about through the intervention of a Queen of the Elves.
