Rudens Turku Festival Ensemble

Dreamteam Recording

It is almost unimaginable to find an ensemble of top-tier performers like the "Rudens Turku Festival Ensemble" anywhere else. All members (Wen-Sinn Yang, Matthias Höfs, Sibylle Mahni, Malte Refardt, Kristina Altunjan, Taia Lysy, Roland Glassl, Ekkehard Beringer, Stephanie Winker, Kai Frömbgen, Johannes Gmeinder, Jonas Krause) belong to the generation aged between 40 and 55 and bring together solo, orchestral, chamber music, and pedagogical expertise at the highest level. Thus, this recording can rightfully be considered a "Dream Team Recording."
