Lydia Maria Bader wants to take us here into the adventurous world of the oceans and seafaring. Her enthusiasm for the sensual and emotional palette of colours that can be tapped here has an immediately infectious effect. The sea, which can be heard in the six compositions of this recording, shows itself in all its facets: from meditative silence to the unleashed force of nature.
