Description
After meeting for the first time in 2017, the tenor Daniel Behle and the horn quartet German Hornsound decided to create a project together. Initially, it was to be about music of the Romantic period; the central concept was to be "Heimat". That specifically German term that does not find a 100% accurate translation in most other languages. But soon the area of musical romanticism was left behind and music of the 20th century from chanson to Schlager was included. A total of 50 arrangements for four horns and tenor were created by Alexander Krampe. Of these, 29 ultimately made it onto the double album.
In order to make both the album and the planned concerts as varied as possible (and also to provide breaks from playing), the well-known actor Mario Adorf read in ten texts, enriching the immense range of the theme.
The question of what home is cannot be answered so simply. Home can be a place, nature or landscape, memory, people, friends and family, a longing, idyll, language and dialect, cuisine, home, roots, security, but also a nightmare, loss and pain ... and all this multiplied with feelings and views, for each person individually and yet ultimately similar in some ways.
This remarkably cleverly designed album on PROSPERO embarks on a fascinating journey through many stations, and all of them bear the inscription "home".
