After their stunning duo album "Monk" from 2016, baritone saxophonist Marcus Bartelt and pianist Martin Sasse come together again and celebrate with "Still Here" in a unique way the continuation of their intimate, harmony-rich "Art of the Duo". And again one missed nothing at all in view of this only at first sight meager instrumentation: Sometimes the seemingly symbiotically connected musicians breathe the grandeur of a whole orchestra, sometimes they prefer the fragile dialogue as equal masters of aesthetics and improvisation. No, nothing is missing, everything is in its right place here.

Chen Leiji studied guqin at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music and was the first student of the guqin master Gong Yi. The seven-stringed fingerboard zither is an instrument of Chinese classical music that is essentially played as a solo instrument.

Although Benjamin Britten's guitar music represents a very small part of his oeuvre, it contains all the dramatic genius of his greatest works. Britten’s interest in the guitar sprang from his friendship with the famous English virtuoso Julian Bream (1933-2020), to whom his guitar works are dedicated. Bream began performing with Britten’s partner, the tenor Peter Pears, in 1952. In order to expand the duo’s concert programs, Britten (1913-76) dedicated the sixth volume of his Folksongs arrangements to them. Written between 1956 and 1958, these songs illustrate both the composer’s affection for English musical heritage and his conception of the art song.
