Early Music Ensemble BASSORUM VOX
Neuburger Rundschau - 04.08.2006 |
Ensemble Bassorum vox, as unique group in many ways, gave a strong impression. The Korean cellist, Seung-Yeon and Se-Hee Lee, the Japanese harpsichordist, Mami Kurumada, and the Spanish Theorbo/Guitarist, Joaquim Arau, summoned an enormous sound from the bass instruments. It was as though the cellists, who were constantly in eye contact, were able to use entire staging as a resonator. Bassorum vox performed under the direction of Seung-Yeon Lee with high precision, engaging virtuosity, and dramatic accents. The audience was moved to tumultuous applause, and the juries could do nothing else than give the Biagio-Marini-Preis to this young ensemble. |

Se-Hee Lee and Seung-Yeon Lee perform as a duo which is well informed in the baroque style. Mami Kurumada performed three pieces from Pieces de Clavecin by Royer with perfect technique, cascading arpeggios, and clearly thought out melodies. |
