Awards and reviews
May 2015
Schirmer and his orchestra bring out the music's warmth, with textures sounding transparent in CPO's natural recording..Eiche may not be the heroic voice that Kunrad seems to call for...but he has the notes and sings eloquently and intelligently. Simone Schneider sounds a touch womanly...but performs with thrilling fearlessness and commitment.
26th April 2015
Markus Eiche’s priapic Kunrad and Simone Schneider’s ecstatic Diemut are the stars of this incendiary performance.
