Music school teachers on CD!
Sub5 - krismes and Ensemble Ciaconna
This Corona winter, the pupils and teachers of the Wolfsburg City Music School will once again be singing and making music. However, due to the coronavirus pandemic, it is not possible for them to present their skills live. This makes it all the nicer and more important that the music school's teachers are excellent musicians themselves and can present themselves on CDs.
There have certainly been better times to release CDs. But precisely because 2020 can do with a bit of glitter and festive cheer, Juliette Jacobsen, vocal teacher at the music school, and her a capella formation Sub5 have released krismes for the first Advent: their first CD with Christmas and winter songs. In nine songs, the five singers from Hanover prove themselves to be first-class ambassadors in the Christmas field of tension between contemplation, traditions and Coca-Cola kitsch. Softly trickling snow, Mary walking through a mystical and magical thorn forest and meeting swinging Bing Crosby and Destiny's Child: a piece of Christmas in these turbulent times.
They were able to win over the multi-award-winning a cappella specialist Joshua Bredemeier (Hörbänd) as producer. In a normal year, there would be dates for concerts here. But like many other players in the cultural sector, Sub5 have been hit particularly hard by the coronavirus crisis. The CD can be ordered by e-mail for 15.00 euros plus shipping. It has also been available to listen to on all popular streaming platforms since 27.11.2020.
A real insider tip is the "Ensemble Ciaconna", to which three lecturers from the Wolfsburg City Music School have joined forces to devote themselves to their great passion - baroque music. The musicians Katrin Heidenreich (recorder/traverse flute), Negin Habibi (baroque guitar/keyboard guitar) and Charlotte Kiefer (baroque cello) have been inspiring audiences on national and international stages for many years and have used the Corona summer to record their debut album, which was released at the end of November.
The album features works by well-known Baroque masters such as Bach, Telemann and Corelli, as well as musical gems by less famous composers. CD orders can be placed via the website www.ciaconna.de/kontakt for 15.00 euros plus shipping.
