From the very first note, violinist Annette Unger's new GENUIN CD will captivate you with an eclectic program featuring early and contemporary music from Dresden, full of electrifying contrasts. The oldest composition is by Bach contemporary Johann Georg Pisendel, while the most recent by Manfred Weiss was premiered by Annette Unger as recently as 2015. Aside from Pisendel's great
work, all the other pieces in this production are world premiere recordings. Annette Unger, who plays flawlessly and with a wealth of color, presents a kaleidoscope of violinistic possibilities, compositional ideas, and intellectual approaches to music, intimately connected to the musical city of Dresden.
Dresdner Neueste Nachrichten
"Annette Unger verleiht ihm die Flügel der Leichtigkeit, die strukturelle Schwierigkeiten mühelos zu überwinden scheinen. Kontrapunktik und Melodie, Rhythmik und Zeitmaß gehen mit pulsierender Frische Hand in Hand." Review by Wolfram Quellmalz
