      Just looked up a clip of it....looks 'exciting'! Reminding me of some of the singing of Salome Kammer - especially some of the things she did in the utterly brilliant Heimat 2 and 3, Edgar Reitz's thrilling examination of life in Munich from the 60s up to the millennium.

          An unusual one by a composer 'never played', although requested many times! Daniel-Lesur. His Suite Médiévale is a lovely work written for Pierre Jamet's Group Instrumentale de Paris which consisted of flute, harp and string trio....most of the works for this combination were thus commissioned. Lunchtime concerts on a Sunday at the Salle Garnier ( the old opera house ) in Paris recreate these, the section leaders of the opera orch make up the quintet.

          Edit. But not the above perf.
