Totentanz

"Taking centre-stage on this delightful disc is the Totentanz, composed in 1934 ... In order to add to the dramatic impact of Totentanz, Distler inserted spoken dialogue ... There's marvellous clarity to the vocal contributions, with diction being remarkable clear. Ensemble is immaculate, as is tuning. The choir are aided by a sympathetic acoustic, both intimate and resonant ... Steyer's rich, darkly-toned voice lends a certain intimacy ... The flute solos are admirably played by Christine Rothe".
