“The decision to record works by my great-grandfather was actually made some time ago. Back in 2006 I founded the Hohenstaufen chamber music festival, which takes place annually in September and of which I am the artistic director. We play chamber music from absolutely all eras at this festival, in a wide variety of scorings. This is how we came to engage with the chamber music of Robert Kahn and produce the first CD with hänssler CLASSIC in 2013. I was aware of Kahns´s compositions at the end of the 1990s. Kahn was a senator of the Academy of Arts in Berlin and Professor at the Musikhochschule in Berlin for chamber music and piano.”

“…Performances by the Hohenstaufen Ensemble are good, with plenty of energy and enthusiasm… this is enjoyable music with some very fine moments … Seekers of the unsung will find this a worthwhile journey.”

“…In this quality of interpretation, Robert Kahn’s music is convincingly presented and will win more friends.” ****
