In the successful history of the cooperation between Klaus Schulze and Lisa Gerrard a new chapter is written. Klaus Schulze is an institution, a living legend: He was a member of electronic bands, since 1972 he has recorded solo records, he produced Bands like Ideal or Alphaville und he took part in the recording of Schiller's platinum-album "Sehnsucht", he has entered various co operations, always full of suspense, always innovative. Gerrard, born in Melbourne, Australia was once a member of the unique duo Dead Can Dance and has since contributed to a host of movie scores such as Gladiator, Ali and Whale Rider. She owns one of the most remarkable and expressive voices of modern times. "I have wanted to work with Lisa since the days of Dead Can Dance in the 80's, but I never had an opportunity for such a collaboration", Schulze says. After the extremely successful studio album to "Farscape" and the DVD/CD "Rheingold" with "Dziekuje Bardzo" (Polish for "many thanks") 3CD Set and DVD version was released on June 1st. The CD & DVD not only contains the concert in Warsaw, you will also find a complete concert which was recorded the day before in the Schiller's Theatre in Berlin. Especially the Warsaw concert was a big emotional moment and a triumphant return for Klaus Schulze. 25 years after his last concerts in Poland (which can be heard on "Dziekuje Poland live 83" he returned to the place where he can count on his most loyal fans. As always with Klaus Schulze exclusive new pieces were played in both concerts, Lisa Gerrard is to be heard on the tracks "Bazylika NSJ", "Godspell", "Ocean Of Innocence" and "Spanish Ballerina" as a singer, "Shoreless One" and "Shoreless Two" are two long Klaus Schulze-solo pieces with breathtaking solos on the Mini-Moog. Both concerts differ in atmosphere, intensity and character clearly from the Loreley concert and present again a huge number of new facets. The CD is published in an elegant digipak.
