Florence Foster Jenkins (soprano)About
This collection comprises all the recordings she made, released privately from 1941-44, comprising popular arias and original art songs. They provide ample (and hilarious, if excruciating) evidence of her lack of ability to sing in tune or with any kind of rhythm or timing.
A biopic feature film starring Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant is being released during 2016, and it will spark a huge amount of interest in her and her ‘music’.
Track listing:
1. Aria: Queen of the Night (from 'The Magic Flute' – Mozart)
2. The Musical Snuff-Box (Liadov, English lyrics by Adele Epstein)
3. Like A Bird (Cosme McMoon, lyrics by Florence Foster Jenkins)
4. Bell Song (from ‘Lakmé’ – Delibes)
5. Serenata Mexicana (Cosme McMoon, lyrics by Florence Foster Jenkins)
6. Charmant Oiseau (from 'Pearl of Brazil' - Felicien David)
7. Biassy (based on the Prelude no.16 by JS Bach) (Pavlovic, JS Bach, words by Pushkin)
8. Adele's Laughing Song (from 'Die Fiedermaus' - Johann Strauss II)
