Description
The Berolina Ensemble scored a sensational success
with its discovery of Waldemar von Bausznern’s music – and not without reason. Bausznern’s music is distinguished by individual wit and instrumented with rich imagination, and what the young Berlin chamber ensemble gets out of the unusual instrumental combinations is an absolute listening must.
Now the Berolinas have unearthed yet another treasure trove: a quintet and a trio frame Bausznern’s Chamber Songs, which Maria Bengtsson interprets with a fine feel for the traditional French, German, and Italian melodies.
Bausznern, who grew up in Transylvania, quite early
developed an interest in the folk music of his Hungarian surroundings. He was influenced by the New Germans, educated in the Brahms tradition in Berlin, and went on to develop a most highly individual personal style that is always good for surprises.
