rw? 2 by Mark Andre is a contemporary work for Vocal and Instrumental Ensemble which is part of a four-part cycle. The word rw? (pronounced rúach) comes from Aramaic and covers a whole field of words: wind, breath, soul, spirit. In the Bible it stands for 'Holy Spirit'. In his cycle, the French composer and sound researcher Mark Andre makes this 'holy' breath concretely and existentially tangible. rw? 2 was commissioned by Internationale Bachakademie Stuttgart and was first performed on 12 June 2020 in Stuttgart by Gaechinger Cantorey. The complete cycle was first performed on 15 May 2022 at the KunstFestSpiele Herrenhausen, Hannover by more than 200 singers and Ensemble Modern, conducted by Ingo Metzmacher.
