Kreek: The Suspended Harp of Babel / Tulve, Vox Clamantis
The Suspended Harp of Babel features revelatory performances of the choral music of Estonian composer Cyrillus Kreek (1889-1962).
Kreek's pieces, incorporating graceful settings of psalms and folk hymns, are juxtaposed here with instrumental fantasias and interludes created for this recording by Marco Ambrosini. Under the direction of Jan-Eik Tulve, the Vox Clamantis choir whose previous ECM recordings have addressed works of Arvo Prt, Erkki-Sven Tr and Helena Tulve as well as Gregorian chant prove to be ideal interpreters of a music poised between old and new.
The Suspended Harp of Babel was recorded in Tallinn's Transfiguration Church in August 2018.
