Unheard-of female composers - this is the name of the debut CD by Tübingen-based Ensemble Horizons. In this hour, we experience what the chamber choir, founded in 2018, has selected for the production, for example all the well-known choral works by Tübingen composer Josephine Lang (1815-80). Mendelssohn particularly appreciated her music and wrote: "It is the most perfect musical joy." The other works of the evening come from Great Britain, Slovakia, France and Estonia - for example by Galina Grigorjeva (*1962), whose intimate, profound In Paradisum was composed in 2012. The conductor is Matthias Klosinski, former Hymnusian, tenor, pianist, violinist - and doctor of medicine.
