about

Voces is a collection of rare recordings documenting
many of Walter Zimmermann’s compositions for voices
from 1979–2016. The words set to music range from
Meister Eckhart and Hadewijch to Michail Lermontov, Ossip
Mandelstam, Edmond Jabès, Tomas Tranströmer, Felix Philipp
Ingold and Robert Creeley (with Creely’s voice accompanying
the musicians).

Performers include: Claudia Barainsky, Tehila Nini Goldstein,
Sheva Tehoval / Magda Łapaj, Peter Schöne / Jan Philip
Schulze, Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart, KNM Ensemble, Walter
Zimmermann and Band and the musicians of the Merce
Cunningham Dance Company with David Tudor, Takehisha
Kosugi, D’Arcy Gray, John D. S. Adams.

A rare recording from 1982 was recently discovered:
“Freunde/Friends” sung and played by Walter Zimmermann
and his rock/pop/new music band during their U.S. Tour in Los
Angeles, showing a very different musical side of Walter
Zimmermann.

The deluxe 3-CD set comes with a 142-page book containing
the complete song texts (with translations) and essays by Albert
Breier and Christopher Fox. Lavishly illustrated with photos
and art by Nanne Meyer. Packaged in a slipcase.
