BERG DARBELLAY MAHLER - LIEDER
Berg, Darbellay, Mahler
The idea that music begins where language ends goes back to literary Romanticism. In 1835, Joseph von Eichendorff was tracking the “song in all things” with his dowsing rod (“Wünschelrüte” in German, as is entitled one of his most famous poems), searching for the “magic word” that would be capable of transforming the world into song. Only a language that itself becomes music can speak about what it must otherwise keep silent. Thus the credo of romantic poetry.
But if language itself becomes music, what is music then to become? In the musical genre of the Lied, in which words and music are twinned, in which meaning and sound support, ensnare and sometimes infiltrate each other, the composers themselves answer this question. Every art song is basically a meditation on the relationship between music and language.
This is particularly true of the three Lieder cycles on this CD. The song settings by Gustav Mahler, Alban Berg and Jean-Luc Darbellay all revolve around an absence revealed by the language – and to which music provides an acoustic presence. Covering a period of eight decades, the three composers approach the fateful intertwining of love, loss and memory, finding a suitable musical language. The three Mahler, Berg and Darbellay song cycles presented by the Ensemble Orion are arrangements for soprano and string quartet or trio. This is the first recording of the works in a chamber music setting.

Lisa Tatin, soprano
Circus, acting, modern ballet, theatre, opera – all these belong to Lisa Tatin’s career. After studying at a circus and dance school, she continued her vocal training at the Lyon Conservatory and the HEMU in Fribourg/Lausanne with Christian Immler. Further studies led her to Prof. Lina Maria Åkerlund at the Zurich University of the Arts ZHdK.
Thanks to her versatility and joy of discovery, she is now a much-acclaimed soprano.
Lisa Tatin has sung various roles in Mozart operas (Serpetta, Blondchen, Despina). Her talent for acting has also led her to personify characters such as Ernestine, Adele, Serpina or Livietta in the opera buffa repertoire. Over the past years, Lisa Tatin has performed contemporary works that combine alternative forms of singing with choreographic elements. She teamed up with Julie Beauvais, for instance, to associate a solo movement performance with baroque and contemporary music in Sunbathing in My Tears. With the Arcola Theatre London, she performed as a dancing singer in a staged version of Buxtehude’s Jesu Membra Nostri.
Lisa Tatin is a winner of the Migros Kulturprozent Prize 2014/15. She also won 1st prize in the ZHdK contemporary music competition in 2015 and was a finalist at the Concours Nicati 2017. In spring 2022, she will make her debut at Zurich Opera in a work by Stefan Wirth.

Ensemble Orion
Violinist Noëlle-Anne Darbellay and her brother, horn player Olivier Darbellay, form the core of the Ensemble Orion.
Surrounded by top-class musicians, these internationally active siblings play in various formations. The repertoire covers baroque works – played on period instruments – up to contemporary music. The “family band” also includes composer Jean-Luc Darbellay, whose pieces are regularly featured in the ensemble’s programmes.
The Ensemble Orion has performed throughout Europe, North America and Asia. It has been a guest in renowned concert series and festivals, including the Julliard School New York, the Goethe- Institute in Tokyo, the Deutschlandfunk series at the Arithmeum Bonn, the Händel-Haus Halle, the Philharmonie Luxembourg, the Grand-Théâtre d’Angers, the Sion Festival, the Swiss Chamber Music Festival, the Murten Classics, the World New Music Days, the Schubertiade Espace2, the International Music Festival Odessa and the Torshavn Summer Festival on the Faroe Islands, as well as at important Art Institutions such as the Albertina Vienna.
The concerts are often supplemented by educational events, masterclasses and exchanges with ensembles from abroad.
For the three song cycles recorded on this CD, Noëlle-Anne Darbellay is joined by soprano Lisa Tatin, violinist Joakim Cumont-Vioque, violist Julie Le Gac and cellist René Camacaro.
