No contemporary composer has embraced the concept of virtuosity more than Mauricio Kagel. His large and varied output ranges from the multi-media “Happening” Ludwig van and the hilarious “Ten Marches to Miss the Victory” to the epic, Baroque-inspired Sankt-Bach Passion. Hänssler Classic is very proud to present this disc of music by Kagel CONDUCTED by KAGEL. Make no mistake, these are virtuoso works from the pen of a virtuoso composer given virtuoso performances from the SWR Vocal Ensemble. This CD is essential for any collector interested in the European Avant-Garde of the last century.
