Our view of the moon is transfigured. Always present in the sky yet out of reach in the distance, it has been captivating artist, poets, and composers over the centuries.

In LUNARIS, recorder vistuoso Anna Stegmann and the Catalan violinist Jorge Jimenéz perform four sets around the different, often mythical phases of the moon. With various recorders, vielle and baroque violin, they take us on a journey in which early medieval music effortlessly blends with compositions from the last decades:  music of Hildegard von Bingen merges with the sounds of Luciano Berio; Eugène Ysaÿe gets into a dialogue with Johann Sebastian Bach. 

LUNARIS offers an exciting trip through sonic spaces, in which the gap between old and new music slowly changes our perception, while the moon presents itself to us in its different shapes and moods.
