"We wish to introduce no more and no less than the four primary elements of the ancient view of the world in 4 CDs: air water, earth and fire, reflecting the artistic-imaginative fundamental elements of the world and of life, reflected in music and speech. In the four temperaments, encompassing human communication and the entire creation at all times, multifarious and boundless like our nature and our essence."
This is how the ensemble BonaNox formulates its project of the 4 Elements. Meanwhile, Peter Heusch (speaker), Matthias Horn (baritone) and Christoph Ullrich (piano) have already arrived at the third element: air. Once again, not only the selection of texts and the preciousness of the individual pieces is impressive, but also the way in which they are compiled and the artistic presentation. All this conveys a feeling of wholeness and the impression that one holds an independent new work of art in one's hands with this recording.
