Like they did in the namesake Edition of the Horizon Series, the small string ensembles present themselves as a full instrumental body rich in nuances. Tender or expressive, quiet or dynamic, light as a feather or energetic - with the help of new performance algorithms, the ensembles' liveliness magically unfolds when you play. The
Vienna Instruments Chamber Strings exude their flair in intimate arrangements as much as in chamber music compositions or in divided string groups. Large string ensembles combined with the Chamber Strings are enhanced by additional nuances and a wealth of variants.
