The concert production “To Paradise” has been nominated in the Recordings of Concert Performance category at the 63^rd Golden Prague International Television Festival.

AUSTRIA/CZECH REPUBLIC – ORF-Enterprise is pleased to announce that “To Paradise” has been selected for the second round of the international competition at the 63^rd Golden Prague International Television Festival. The production is among the nominated titles in the category Recordings of Concert Performance, which honors outstanding concert recordings from around the world.

A total of 34 productions advanced to the second round of the festival competition following the first round of judging by an international jury. 

When choral singing, the meditative timelessness of Arvo Pärt, and Mozart’s Requiem meet, “To Paradise” creates a powerful soundscape between supplication, comfort, and transcendence.

Filmed at the Sala Sinfónica of the Auditorio Nacional de Música in Madrid, the concert production combines works by Mozart and Bach with contemporary spirituality through the music of Arvo Pärt and Knut Nystedt’s Bach transformation.

Directed by Volker Werner and conducted by Heinz Ferlesch, the production features soprano Miriam Kutrowatz together with the Barucco Orchestra and Barucco Choir. “To Paradise” is a co-production by ORF III, RTVE and Scarlatti Arts in association with ORF-Enterprise.

The concert is distributed worldwide by ORF-Enterprise.
