With its first own recording of a cappella repertoire, the Zürcher Sing-Akademie reveals its musical and emotional identity and opens the door to the unique Swiss musical landscape. HERZBLUT provides an insight into the multifaceted work of Swiss composers, from the Romantic period to the present day.

The programme presents works deeply rooted in the Swiss cultural heritage. It enables the 32-member vocal ensemble to remarkably deploy its transparent and warm sound.

But above all, HERZBLUT embarks listeners on a journey into their inner selves, that infinitely rich and fragile world to which little attention is paid in everyday life. Yet it is precisely these delicate sounds that show us who we are and where we come from. We only need to listen.
