Sol nascente. Italienische Koloratur-Arien


9 tracks - MP3 192 Kbps - RAR Mb




The debut release of coloratura soprano, Charlotte Schäfer accompanied by the Düsseldorfer Hofmusik led by Michael Preiser in a collection that focuses on the bravura arias written in the period between the Baroque and early Classical eras. With many of these arias being released for the first time, Schäfers sublime performance invites us to consider the prescience of the young Mozart with Sol Nascente meaning rising sun written at the advent of the new Classical era.

Spielleyt - Tempus Fugit


17 tracks - MP3 192 Kbps - RAR 123 Mb




This programme focuses on the subject of becoming and fading, love, everyday life and death from the point of view of men in the late middle ages. Following the cycle of the seasons, an atmosphere of happiness and melancholy dominates the compositions which range from the boisterous spring song to the gloomy Geisslerlied.

Not only the music, but also the recitations of contemporary letters, read by Klaus Hemmerle (actor at the National Theatre Stuttgart), reflect the life awareness of people living at the transition to the Renaissance.
