Our Take

ENSEMBLE AEQUATUOR's latest offering, "Im Bau: Fifteen Sound Spaces After Franz Kafka," takes listeners on a sonic journey through the surreal landscapes of Kafka's imagination. Michel Roth's avant-garde compositions blend classical elements with experimental soundscapes, creating a truly immersive listening experience.

From the eerie drones of "The Castle" to the frenetic energy of "The Trial," each track on "Im Bau" captures the essence of Kafka's twisted literary universe. Roth's intricate arrangements and innovative use of instrumentation push the boundaries of traditional chamber music, resulting in a truly unique and captivating sound.

One standout track is "Metamorphosis," which translates Kafka's iconic novella into a visceral auditory experience. The dissonant strings and haunting vocal performances evoke the bewildering transformation of Gregor Samsa with chilling precision.

Throughout the album, ENSEMBLE AEQUATUOR showcases their exceptional musicianship and bold creativity, proving themselves to be true innovators in the world of contemporary classical music. "Im Bau" is a must-listen for fans of experimental music and Kafka enthusiasts alike, offering a fresh perspective on the enigmatic writer's work.

In conclusion, ENSEMBLE AEQUATUOR's "Im Bau" is a surreal and mesmerizing musical journey that defies categorization. With its daring approach to composition and hauntingly beautiful soundscapes, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression on listeners. Kafka would be proud.
