During preparations for their 25th anniversary in 2010, the ensemble recherche came to the conclusion that “There are no love songs anymore!” So they requested such pieces for the celebration from various composer friends. The response from the invited composers was very strong: More than 30 love songs were written in the process and more are in progress. One could almost speak of a new “trend”. Accordingly, the list of composers for the love song cycle reads like a “Who’s Who” of New Music.
