    Early 20th century repertoire specialist Christoph Eschenbach presents orchestral works and songs by Franz Schreker for his 145th birthday in 2023 with the Konzerthausorchester Berlin: this double album features highlights such as the "Nachtstück," an instrumental intermezzo from the opera "Der Ferne Klang," which made Schreker famous overnight, as well as the popular Viennese-style "Valse Lente" and other orchestral works.

    Together with soprano Chen Reiss and baritone Matthias Goerne, Eschenbach devotes himself to the rarely performed treasures of Schreker's song repertoire, such as the song cycle "Fünf Gesänge" with texts by Austrian poet Edith Ronsperger and "Vom ewigen Leben" with poems by the American writer Walt Whitman.

    Delightful late-romantic music can be discovered here in the most beautiful way, the "distant sound" of far away, utopian worlds...
