For the fifth time, meanwhile, the festive sounds of the Saxon Wind Philharmonic can sound forth from your loudspeakers – from the new GENUIN CD with works by their home composers: Wagner, Bach and Mendelssohn. As seemingly different as these three are from each other, they all ideally fit the fingers, lungs and lips of the Saxon elite musicians. From the solemn pomp of Lohengrin to Isolde's sighs of longing, from the Mendelssohnian drive to Bachian D-major groove: everything is brilliant and glittery, pearly and sparkling in such a natural way that one could think that the three composers had already known the Wind Philharmonic...

"played and recorded superbly. (..) This is a disc with an appeal well beyond enthusiasts for wind bands or those with a particular interest in Saxony."
