An unusual trio, winners of the German Music Competition in the "New Music" category, presents the new GENUIN CD Breathe. Paula Breland (clarinet), Jennifer Assmus (violoncello) and Anna-Katharina Schau (accordion) make up the trio – a confluence of instruments that, despite their significant differences, are nevertheless all "breathing” instruments. This is reflected both in the organic music-making style of the young musicians and in their selection of lively works of contemporary music. The program includes music by Katzer, Kuwan, Goldmann, Tiensuu, Rojko, and Fagerlund – examples of how new music can narrate stories passionately and sensually.

"The multi-layered sound levels made possible by the distinctive combination of instruments, combined with the subtle sound design and experimental playing techniques of the three musicians, create a very special interpretative experience." Review by Michael Pitz-Grewenig, August 06, 2024
Fono Forum
"In the eight aphoristic and extremely inventive sound tentacles of Georg Katzer's "Oktopus" Klangspektrum once again pulls out all the stops of a differentiated and powerful interplay." Review by Dirk Wieschollek, November 2023 issue
Das Orchester
"Es ist ein Triumph einer selten gehörten Kammerbesetzung. Wie Breland, Aßmus und Schau in diesenAufnahmen zusammenwirken, wie sie aus der Klanglichkeit ihrer so verschiedenen Instrumente Kontraste und Einheit schöpfen, zeugt von gewaltigem Talent." Rezension von Hans-Jürgen Schaal erschienen in Ausgabe 6/2023
