The title PLUS! stands for something that is of central importance to the repertoire of Das Klarinettenduo Beate Zelinsky - the interaction with other soloists or ensemble formations. The combination with the accordion (Krisztian Palagyi) is particularly attractive; it can merge with the sound of the clarinets to a perfect unity, but it can also emerge clearly perceptible from this composite sound.
This prompted Nikolaus Brass to write a work for the three musicians: Songs and Melodies. It is here, as well as the compositions of Jukka Tiensuu, Younghi Pagh-Paan and Georg Katzer, juxtaposed with music by Johann Sebastian Bach. Two-Part Inventions have been placed between the contemporary works � in the versions of Max Reger / Karl Straube and Helmut Lachenmann, who each added a third voice. Another level for the idea of PLUS! in this extraordinary program.
