The latest release from the internationally acclaimed, multi-award-winning Danish National Vocal Ensemble marks an extraordinary milestone in the choir’s history with the appointment of their new Chief Conductor, Martina Batič. For her OUR Recordings debut, maestra Batič has chosen the works of two composers, both of whom may well come as revelations to music lovers. Opening the album is a selection of works from one of the musical heroes of her homeland, the Slovenian composer Uros Krek. As a calling card to her new Danish friends, Maestra Batič makes an extraordinary artistic statement presenting the choral music of Else Marie Pade! As beautifully score the pair of stunning works from the 1950s are, nothing could prepare us for the World Premiere Recording of Pade’s extraordinary Maria (1980) scored for coloratura soprano, bass baritone, speaking choir and 7 trombones, and electronic sounds.
