About
We all know how many recordings there are of this ever-popular work, but very few are of the composer’s authorised version of soloists, choir, pianos and percussion ensemble. Rupert Huber and the SWR Vocal Ensemble are unquestioned masters of the 20th century repertoire.

Awards and reviews
February 2012
the result is most distinctive, most of all because the SWR Vocal Ensemble sings with such knife-edge precision of ensemble and the recording allows every detail to be heard...Not only has [Ruiten] an aptly girlish voice, she attacks the fearsomely exposed high notes...with supreme confidence...Altogether an excellent version of Orff's chamber version
