This delightful recital of Strauss Songs by Dame Felicity Lott focuses on songs composed between 1885 and 1901, the years of Strauss’ richest song-writing genius.

Partnered by her long-time collaborator, Graham johnson, Dame Felicity sings various Nocturnes and Fantasies, songs about Flowers, and then, grouped as "Valedictions and Lullabies", some of Strauss’ best-known songs, including Allerseelen and Muttertändelei. Following "Girls In and Out of Love" (including Winterweihe and Cäcilie) gives way to the three Ophelia sonf from 1918.

The album concludes with one his best-loved songs ’Morgen’. This is the last of the four Op.27 wedding-gift songs for his wife, Pauline de Ahna: "...breathless rapture turned into music, one of the great songs of the world ..." [Michael Kennedy 2003]
 

"...There’s simply no escaping it: Lott is one of the giants of singing in our lifetime, we aref fortunate to havehere, and this CD is one of her many treasurable moments."

Lynn René Bayley - Fanfare - November/December 2012 

 


"...this is singing as it should be, so many planes of ability above what passes for it in popular culture. A must for connoisseurs of the musical voice..."
