Cd-recording of music by Kagel
04.01.2008During December 2007 the Nederlands Kamerkoor, conducted by Klaas Stok and Mauricio Kagel, made CD recordings of two important works by Kagel: Les inventions d’Adolphe Sax (commissioned by the NKK) and Chorbuch.
The collaboration with Kagel was, as ever, a very special one, and Kagel himself for his part found working with the Nederlands Kamerkoor a heartwarming and exceptional experience. All that remains now is the memory of the project, until the CD is released, during the course of 2008.
During the performance of some of the chorales in Chorbuch the singers are required to use cardboard megaphones. After the recording was completed this gave rise to a hilarious group photo, in which Kagel, seated in the middle, has the megaphone completely covering his head, with his glasses in front of it… [see photo above].
