hand werk has a new CD out today — kuzwelle — and you can stream/download it on bandcamp. Four great new pieces by Francisco C. Goldschmit, Max-Lukas Hundelshausen, Elnaz Seyedi and Matthias Krüger. This project was made possible by ON Neue Musik Köln.

And in case you’re not aware of hand werk, this is my “day job” so to speak – what I’m doing when I’m not working on the blog (ha!). We’ve been around since 2011 and have been playing unconducted chamber music for Pierrot sextet (and quite regularly putting our instruments down to play aubergines and the like) all over Europe ever since.

If you’re interested in how we work, I also wrote an article about movement and contemporary chamber music for Divergence Press.
