The overwhelming commitment on the part of all of the artists and their enthusiasm for the folk songs brought such an abundance of first-class material to the project so that a third CD could be released. Once again, first-rate soloists, such as Angelika Kirchschlager, Christiane Oelze und Roman Trekel sing on this CD. In addition, a number of young artists and many ensembles and choirs can be heard (ranging from scorings for the traditional four-voice choir via men’s or women’s choir as well as a children’s choir to even an historic recording by the Comedian Harmonists), who offer much variety with their many-faceted choral colors. The CD Volkslieder, Vol. 3 concludes this collection, which has presented the folk song in all of its many facets. All of the artists have approached the theme of the folk song in their own intimate way and have brought to it with their most personal interpretations of the songs. Whether an art song or from folklore, a solo song or an arrangement for choir, each approach to an interpretation of the folk song is equally valid. A song becomes a folk song if over a long period of time it remains rooted in the consciousness of the people, regardless of whether the melody, text and form undergo changes.

  • Founded in 1994, ensemble cantissimo is one of the most sought-after vocal ensembles in the German-speaking world. The name speaks for itself: “cantissimo” is synonymous with a cappella singing. And from the very beginning the group’s main interest has been in the incredible range of music beyond the mainstream repertoire. With its distinctive interpretations and exciting choice of programmes, the choir, with singers from Germany and Switzerland, conducted by Markus Utz, has thrilled audiences and critics alike. Regular invitations to leading music festivals and a close collaboration with radio stations reflect the high regard the ensemble’s vocal artistry is held in. Personal details

As well as successes in competitions as an organist, as a conductor he held scholarships from the German Academic Exchange Service and the Scandinavian Bach Academy under Sir Andrew Parrot.

Reviews

Ein so bewährtes wie erfolgreiches Unternehmen findet mit dieser Scheibe seinen Abschluss: das stets auch optisch sehr attraktiv präsentierte Volksliederprojekt von Carus-Verlag und SWR2. Sämtliche Interpreten, darunter nicht wenige mit Rang und Namen, haben sich gagenfrei engagiert. Der Volkslied-Begriff ist hier bewusst weit gefasst - die Bandbreite reicht vom Kunstlied bis zum Liedermacher-Sound. [...] Die eigentliche Volkslieder-Reihe ist zu einem honorigen Ende gekommen - und wird anderweitig fortgesetzt: Auf die Kinderlieder in diesem Jahr und die Weihnachtslieder 2012 darf man sich bereits heute freuen.
(Johannes Adam, Badische Zeitung, 25. Juni 2011)

[... Es] singen erneut hochkarätige Solisten wie Angelika Kirchschlager, Christiane Oelze und Roman Trekel. Außerdem sind einige junge Künstler sowie zahlreiche Ensembles und Chöre zu hören, die mit ihren vielseitigen Klangfarben, von klassischer vierstimmiger Besetzung über ein reines Männer- bzw. Frauenensemble, bis hin zum Kinderchor sowie einer historischen Aufnahme der Comedian Harmonists, für viel Abwechslung sorgen.
Mit der CD Volkslieder Vol. 3 findet eine Sammlung ihren Abschluss, die das Volkslied in all seinen Facetten abbildet. Alle Künstler haben sich in eigener, intimer Weise dem Thema Volkslied genähert. [...]
