Thanks to its collaboration with sound engineer Michael Seberich and a residency offered by St Columba’s Drimnin Trust in Scotland, Ensemble Astera recorded its debut album in summer 2024.
“The sound captivates with its homogeneity and its impeccable accuracy.”
Six concert programmes of about one hour for wind quintet, from Mozart and Reicha to Ligeti, Fazıl Say and Poulenc with piano.
