Chaya Czernowin - Seltene Erde & Atara [CD]

"This compelling album presents works by Israeli composer Chaya Czernowin, exploring the fragile balance between destruction and communication, control and surrender. 'Seltene Erde' transforms the double bass and ensemble into a shifting landscape of illusion and resonance, evoking the invisible forces shaping our world. 'Atara,' born from the isolation of 2020, is a powerful orchestral lament, where vast sonic masses collide with the delicate voices of two singers, lost yet luminous. Through these works, Czernowin crafts a deeply visceral experience -- where sound becomes both raw material and fleeting shadow, revealing the unseen forces that shape existence."
