"Give me some music!" These words from Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra, which open Cleopatra's Songs, seem particularly well chosen to characterize Agata Zubel's relationship to music. Music: a vital need, a thirst, but also something that you give. This portrait album with three major works, performed by leading ensembles, follows her receipt of the Erste Bank Kompositionspreis in 2018.
