Sometimes, it only takes a few notes to evoke a magical Christmas scene before our eyes: a festively decorated church, the trusted Christmas tree at home, or an idyllic snow-covered field. GENUIN classics offers such music with its new Christmas album. The recording features a compilation of its productions ranging from the evocative sound of the MDR Leipzig Radio Choir to the sensitive piano playing of Caroline Fischer and Adriana von Franqué and from traditional folk songs to elaborate new interpretations. All the GENUIN artists involved have put their heart and soul into these recordings, enabling us to step away from the hustle and bustle of the outer world for a moment and return to ourselves: Silent Night!
