| Description |
As a recital artist she is renowned for her intelligent programming and this generous set of songs is her best and her personal favourite. Schumann’s Frauenliebe und Leben is one of those works in danger of disappearing from concert halls because the timeless beauty of its music is becoming overshadowed by its seemingly dated text. By dividing up the eight Lieder and exploring the themes of each via a staggering variety of interspersed songs (Grieg, Tchaikovsky, Berlioz, Granados, Debussy, Fauré, Duparc, Poulenc) we listen to the cycle afresh and its explorations of love, sex, kids and grief become genuinely universal. |
