About
The German lied is represented by Brahms (Two Songs, op.91 and Five Ophelia Songs, WoO22) and Strauss (Morgen!), the French chanson by Chausson (Chanson perpétuelle) and Ravel (Chansons madécasses), and 20th-century avant-gardism with Stravinsky’s Three Songs from William Shakespeare. In between these explorations, Kožená revisits her musical roots with a selection of Dvořák songs, arranged by Duncan Ward, as well as Janáček’s Nursery Rhymes.
Soirée is the second release of Magdalena Kožená’s exclusive collaboration with PENTATONE, after having presented the baroque cantatas recital album Il giardino dei sospiri in 2019.
Reviews
It’s a pleasure to hear solo voice with various combinations of string quartet, flute (Kaspar Zehnder), clarinet (Andrew Marriner), a break from usual recital fare. Kožená’s versatility, and strength in French and Czech repertoire especially, shine through. Fiona MaddocksError on this page? Let us know here
