About

On this new CD, the Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks under the direction of Peter Dijkstra presents itself a cappella in works by Richard Strauss, Gustav Mahler and Richard Wagner. Magnificent tone paintings like “Isoldes Liebestod” and the “Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen” radiate a new unprecedented glory in transcriptions for 16-part chorus by Clytus Gottwald.

Thanks to its special tonal homogeneity and stylistic versatility, this ensemble enjoys the highest regard throughout the world. Dutch conductor Peter Dijkstra – the artistic director of the ensemble since 2005 – is the shooting star on the choral scene and has presented the ensemble together with both BR orchestras in a number of versatile programs.

Recent recordings from 2009 and 2011.
