Bach's Jesu bleibet meine Freude can be found here as well as a rarity by Martin Gustav Nottebohm, Igor Stravinsky and Astor Piazzolla appear alongside each other, and György Kurtág and Michael Denhoff take a new look at today's visions of God – an exciting and original combination of moving music performed to the highest standard!
