The new GENUIN CD offers fascinating acoustic experiments with compositions based on the tonal system of the Bohlen-Pierce scale. This system uses a twelfth instead of an octave and is divided into thirteen tonal steps, taking the listener into magical-archaic tonal worlds that transcend all listening habits. Nora-Louise Müller and Ákos Hoffmann, two outstanding clarinetists, and their fellow musicians play their own compositions on instruments specially made for this scale system, as well as music by Georg Hajdu, Todd Harrop and others.

Das Orchester
"Musikalisch ergiebig ist die Kombination des zwölf- und dreizehnstufigen Systems in Sascha Lino Lemkes 'Pas de Deux' und Frederik Schwanks 'Night Hawks'. Hierin scheint noch Potenzial für harmonisch spannungsreiche Kompositionen zu liegen. Mit spürbarem Engagement haben Nora-Luise Müller und ihre Mitstreiter mit dieser CD dafür den Weg bereitet."
