Under the inspired direction of Matthias Maute, Ensemble ArtChoral offers a deeply evocative and finely crafted immersion into the Jewish choral tradition—an art form surprisingly recent in origin, yet remarkably rich in expressive depth. Before the Jewish emancipation of the eighteenth century, Jewish music relied largely on oral transmission and monodic chant; modernity then opened a vast field in which Jewish culture and Western classical language could meet, influence one another, and evolve together.

The program on this album captures this complex history with nuance, offering a vibrant mosaic of styles—from early sacred polyphony to twentieth-century American reinventions—where tradition and innovation, memory and renewal converge to reveal Jewish music as the living, ever-evolving voice of a culture in motion.
