Cinema Of Dreams (2007)
"Cinema Of Dreams is a collection of solo pieces that I composed and recorded over three years. Finding new musical settings for the cello has always been of interest to me, and on this CD I have stretched out in this regard more than ever. Some pieces have an electronic quality with oscillator-driven drone scapes, while others incorporate a distinctly classical orchestral sound. Then again, I also love including Rock and World Music elements, especially in the rhythmic structure. Imagine Film Noir to Electronica, with a detour to India and the Middle East..." -Hans Christian Listen to Cinema Of Dreams on Spotify... |

Surrender (2003, remastered version)
Highlighting Hans Christian's unmistakable cello virtuosity, Surrender features the cello, this most soulful of instruments, in new and exciting musical contexts. The pieces on Surrender suggest a musical path that freely crosses the boundaries between Eastern and Western traditions in a fusion of cultural styles. where the classical/European voice of the cello, the Far Eastern or Middle Eastern sounds of an oud-like guitar, Balalaika or Shakuhachi are integrated with the modern pulse of electronic timbres. Each composition in this collection is decidedly different; passion dominates one piece, the next is reflective, another brings powerful rhythms - yet each is carried by a clear melodic voice which gives rise to a deep probing into the listener's soul. An intensely beautiful album that is an emotional rendering of compassion and transcendence. Listen to Surrender on Spotify... |
