Jacob Muhlrad Time

Jacob Mühlrad enters his own approach to the intimate and spiritual world of sleep – he states: “Above all, sound plays an important role in my dreams”. ‘REMS’ marks the first recording of a symphonic work by Jacob Mühlrad – the piece interprets melodies from Jewish prayers and lullabies and is also inspired by elements of Indian ragas and quarter-tone technique.

Described as one of the world’s most imaginative contemporary orchestral composers (5-star-BBC Music Magazine Review), Jacob Mühlrad comes back with a new album for chamber ensemble.

The powerhouse DJ trio returns with a sprawling 17-track album and a solid Weeknd collaboration, though the forays into menacing, murkier sounds prove less satisfying.

Footprint Records are happy to announce the release of the album Transfiguration, performed by one of Sweden’s most prominent choirs: Lunds Vokalensemble. The present album features some of the Swedish choral classics, such as Gösta Nystroem’s Three Sea Visions, Sven-Erik Bäck’s Transfiguration and Sven-David Sandström’s Hear My Prayer. The choir commissions new works on a regular basis, two of which are Jacob Mühlrad’s Dreams and Linda Alexandersson’s April och tystnad (April and Silence), and both are featured on this album along with several magnificent choral pieces. The choir’s hallmark is a certain pure, transparent, and homogenous tonal quality developed in the day of Ingemar Månsson (1929–2022).
