    A Musical-Literary Program

    eter Heusch (speaker), Matthias Horn (baritone), and Christoph Ullrich (pianist) form the ensemble BonaNox and here present one of their musical-literary programs on CD for the first time. At BonaNox, a poem by Ernst Jandl can suddenly stand alongside a piano song by Francis Poulenc, which is then followed by an excerpt from Andersen’s fairy tale The Little Mermaid, leading into Debussy’s Jardins sous la pluie from Estampes… The twists, leaps, and turns through literature and music from past and present—executed by the three gentlemen, each of whom is a master of his craft in his own right—under the motto The Four Elements – Water do not necessarily appear logically connected or sequential, but are often arranged more associatively. Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that the program never feels pedantic or dusty; it is always thought-provoking, but also highly entertaining. But it is not only the concept that captivates: the singing, piano playing, and recitation are all performed excellently. Andreas Spreer of TACET has ensured the superb sound quality.
