Das Spiel (The Game) 2011

The CD opens with a 12-minute composition for string orchestra in three movements: Motorus, Sehnsucht (longing) and Euphoria. Motorus being an imaginary word in the German language associating engines and perpetual motion of some sort.

After the instrumental introduction Toni presents six of his original songs and an arrangement of the old German folk song “Blaublümelein”. Three of the songs are in English that Toni wrote while travelling the English speaking world and the others are in his first language, German.

You’ll find a stop-motion shadow theatre video of “Blaublümelein” by the artist Romy Pfeiffer here.
