Rupert Huber: ruh-i-gulab / Mein Venedig
Rupert Huber conducts Rupert Huber (I). In recent years this composer-conductor has often performed his own works with the BR Chorus, opening the ears of audiences and singers alike to music that is anything but commonplace. In their ideas and sounds his words venture not only into the world of distant cultures and regions but into great literature and world religions.
