Shortly after the publication of the first volume of LoreLey for mixed choir, we began receiving a lot of inquiries for such a collection for women’s and girl’s choirs. Soon, a sequel, LoreLey II, was published with over 130 lieder for this scoring. The Pfälzische Kurrende, under the direction of Carola Bischoff – a twotime winner of the German choral competition – has now recorded 29 of these Volkslieder (folk song) classics. Many of these arrangments by wellknown contemporary composers were specially written for this collection and are recorded here for the first time. In addition to examples with classical harmony there are selections with modern elements of style, also in a light, jazzy manner. The CD should stimulate the singing of folk songs and offer choral conducters an aural impression of these choral collections already published.
