Jaan-Eik TulveAbout
Kreek’s pieces, incorporating graceful settings of psalms and folk hymns, are juxtaposed here with instrumental fantasias and interludes created for this recording by Marco Ambrosini. Under the direction of Jan-Eik Tulve, the Vox Clamantis choir – whose previous ECM recordings have addressed works of Arvo Pärt, Erkki-Sven Tüür and Helena Tulve as well as Gregorian chant – prove to be ideal interpreters of a music poised between old and new.
The Suspended Harp of Babel was recorded in Tallinn’s Transfiguration Church in August 2018.
