About

With its first international CD, the Neuer Kammerchor Berlin is standing on strong shoulders: "Standing on the Shoulders of Giants" is the debut of the ensemble founded and led by conductor Adrian Emans in 2016. It presents an exciting cross-section of the young ensemble's repertoire – from Thomas Tallis to neo-romantic music by Max Bruch and Josef Gabriel Rheinberger, pieces with a folkloristic touch by John Rutter, Paul Stanhope and Ken Steven to commissioned compositions. The Neuer Kammerchor Berlin unites the vibrant voices of young singers to create an engaging choral sound of captivating transparency and perfect harmony. The ensemble sees itself as part of a long choral tradition and vocal culture and feels committed to this heritage when shaping its repertoire. "Everything is connected to everything else and builds upon one another," emphasises conductor Adrian Emans. "Later compositions result from what earlier artists created, subjects correspond to each other or form a counterpart – calm sounds are juxtaposed with lively works, romantic sounds with neo-romantic sounds." All of this can be heard on this recording.
