Klaus Gesing - Song & Dance Music CD

Three main elements thread through the compositions and arrangements of this collection. Firstly, the presence of irregular time signatures. Secondly, I am captivated by the magic that happens when a melody is accompanied by words: lyrics seem to emancipate a melody from the composer's original intent; what has been a tune becomes a song. And thirdly, I am fascinated with textures, with the changing colours of intertwining wind instruments.
