Release of the CD "Tenebre" with compositions of Bryce Dessner played by Ensemble Resonanz. With Moses Sumney.

This album assembles four of Dessner's most recent and important works for strings: a staggering full string orchestra version of his popular masterpiece »Aheym« followed by a new edition of his captivating string quartet »Tenebre«, featuring an appearance by vocal sensation Moses Sumney. Dessner's string trio »Skrik« appears as a world premiere recording, while his orchestral piece »Lachrimae«, referencing the musical world of John Dowland, completes this collection of a multi-faceted composer.

The new CD of the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin and conductor Howard Griffiths with the Musique symphonique et ballets d'Orphée aux Enfers by Jacques Offenbach was recorded in March 2019 in the large broadcast hall of the Haus des Rundfunks Berlin.

Kevin Clarke (Operetta Research Center 29 August, 2019) writes in Dangerous when wet: "The must-have item on this new album, however, is music that was only recently discovered, composed by Offenbach as a later extra alteration of the 1874 version. (...)...it's a treat I enjoyed very much."
