Treasures from the Detmold Archives (4 CDs)
On the 75th anniversary of the Detmold University of Music
Historical recordings from the collection of the Erich-Thienhaus-Institute
For the 75 th anniversary of the Detmold University of Music, GENUIN is presenting a collection of lovingly restored recordings from the 1970s and 80s. As we gradually leaf through the booklet and listen through the four discs, we are treated to a veritable cornucopia: highly personal recordings by great musicians who played a significant role in shaping not only the history of the Detmold Institute, but also that of German post-war music history. The deeply stirring interpretations include works by Reger, Schoenberg, Brahms, and Beethoven, performed by Tibor Varga, André Navarra, Helmut Winschermann and many others!

"Music, half in contemporary tonal style, half still carried by late romantic spirit"
