Archipel Machaut Musique pour accordéon

Description

If the wide range of the ensemble Mixtura on their first CD released by Genuin was impressive, this time, the two musicians Katharina Bäuml (shawm) and Margit Kern (accordion) take us across a much deeper gorge with their new Genuin release: they blend in a breathtaking fusion works by the father of Western music, Guillaume de Machaut, with contemporary compositions. Just as ancient churches are reflected on the glass facades of modern buildings, we rediscover the refined polyphony of the Middle Ages in works by Sidney Corbett, Sarah Nemtsov, and Samir Odeh-Tamimi. Time becomes sound, the two disparate instruments merge into new and captivating color syntheses – a must-listen!
