CD Reviews

Finally, a recording worthy of this piece
Bogyo Canterbury | NYC | 02/19/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"One of the hardest things about casting this piece is finding singers who are great chamber musicians capable of blending their voices when appropriate, yet who are also great solo lieder singers. (Usually you get one or the other.) The singers on this recording do spectacularly well in both regards. They have the ensemble skills of a world class string quartet, and yet I'd go out of my way to hear any of them perform individually.





It's also a piece that tends to get under-rehearsed and in performance often sounds only a couple degrees beyond the sight-reading level--probably because at first glance it seems so light-hearted and uncomplicated, and because it's just logistically challenging to get two pianists and four singers to prepare 33 songs. This is too bad because I think these waltzes are truly no less musically challenging and rewarding than any of Brahms great solo vocal repertoire. A big THANK YOU to the performers on this recording, who obviously took the time and effort to prepare these pieces so meticulously and lovingly.



This recording is really phenomenal. So charming and vivid. Thank you."

"Superb singing by all, especially Miss Marlis Petersen, the up-and-coming German soprano known to US audiences through her interpretation of Adele in Die Fledermaus sung in Chicago and at the Metropolitan Opera in New York."
