Description
This new GENUIN release brings a forgotten chapter of music history back into focus: songs by Jewish composers born between 1890 and 1924, whose lives were profoundly altered by persecution and exile. Mezzo-soprano Pia Viola Buchert and pianist Tatjana Dravenau perform works by Walter Arlen, Ursula Mamlok, Hans Gal, Ruth Schonthal, Felix Wolfes, and Viktor Ullmann - six musical voices whose creativity continued to resonate despite oppression and loss. The recording unites deep emotional intensity with refined expression and remarkable stylistic variety. It spans a broad arc - from cultural vitality and inquisitive modernity to pain, silencing, and remembrance - allowing this music to sound at once newly rediscovered and timeless.
