There is surprisingly little music for choir and string quartet. Ensemble 96 therefore decided to commission Marcus Paus to write a piece with the link to the album’s theme of childhood. The release also includes contemporary lullabies and Norwegian cradle songs. Ensemble 96 is regarded as one of the top chamber choirs in the world, their Immortal Nystedt album (2L29 Hybrid SACD) was nominated for a Grammy Award as ‘Best Choral Performance’ and ‘Best Surround Sound Album’ in 2006.

Reviews

Choir & Organ

“Marcus Paus, whose arrangement of Yeats ‘stolen child’, is a miniature oratorio, dramatic and dense”
