The four flutists of the German-Chinese Ensemble Tetrachord from Düsseldorf produce much more than just hot air on their Genuin debut release. The chamber music pieces, which they have cleverly compiled, have a grounded, feather-light sound. From Friedrich Kuhlau, who does not come across on this album as an old master at all, but as sparkling and masterly, to the ethereal chords of Mozart's Andante for barrel organ. From the impressionistic sounds of Eugène Bozza to the soundscapes and clusters of Anthony Girard and Manfred Trojahn - all in all, an electrifying discovery! For Lingjia Liang, Alena Wilsdorf, Simo Lu and Franziska Follmer, music has quite literally become a common language: the four flutists from China and Germany met in 2013 at the Robert Schumann Hochschule Dusseldorf and founded the Ensemble Tetrachord one year later. Since then the flute quartet has engaged in an intercontinental "chamber music dialogue." They have now acquired a wide repertoire that ranges from classics of the genre to impressionistic sounds to contemporary works.
