Oj Malina / World Music

 

Up to now the CD “Oj Malina” is the only available recording with the women’s choir “Chorabella”. It was also recorded in a church. The choir “Chorabella”, conducted by Carien Wijnen, was a co-operation of women from East and West Berlin from 1998 to 2007. The CD is a fascinating collection of songs from different countries in different languages with a wonderful polyphonic sound. The CD also features Annunzita Matteucci as a special guest, and reflects the many different cultures living in Berlin together
