Their tone is stunningly beautiful, their arrangements sophisticated, and they play together with such precision that we're convinced we're hearing an organ. This is the Arcis Saxophone Quartet. The successful Munich-based ensemble is presenting its Genuin debut release after winning first prizes at no fewer than five major international competitions. The program features works by Bach, Gershwin, and the breathtakingly virtuosic Rash by Franco Donatoni, which gave the album its name. With its lively an dspirited sound, the performances prove to be a true delight: Bach is light and transparent, Gershwin exuberant and unbelievably drive - highly recommended listening!
