Industrialists used to have a direct connection to art in the days when the towel manufacturer Tost commissioned string quartets from Haydn and provided Spohr with the occasion to compose a nonet. The mixture of strings and winds was much the fashion in those days, forming one of the pillars of court and bourgeois entertainment music. And when one listens to the pieces by Mozart and Clementi served at afternoon tea by the fabulously transparent and virtuoso Persius Ensemble from Potsdam, one hears that Spohr’s magical piece was in good company. Who was Persius? A master builder of the Prussian king, who else … But you can also enjoy the ravishing, witty and finely woven Genuin CD even if you hadn’t known the answer to this question … Long live architecture, long live the textile industry!

"The present CD – classical entertainment in the best sense – is already their third CD on which the Persius Ensemble performs in a filigree, sovereign and convincing manner."
