Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

A new disc from Anne Sofie von Otter always brings with it a sense of eager expectation, whatever the repertoire. None of the composers featured on this recording of Lieder and mélodies is regarded primarily for his songwriting prowess, yet von Otter conjures up winner after winner. Even at their lightest, these pieces never fail to charm--and some of them do a good deal more than that. Listen to the way that Meyerbeer reflects the text of "La Fille de l'air" (the daughter of the air) in the tinkling accompaniment (Superbly realised by Melvyn Tan), or the way the arching violin arabesques spice up the vocal line in the first of Spohr's irresistible Six Lieder. And Beethoven's tolling "In questa tomba oscura" (In this dark grave) is a small masterpiece, as is, in quite a different vein, Meyerbeer's deceptively simple "Sicilienne". It is only in some of the darker songs (such as Meyerbeer's setting of "Le Voeu pendant l'orage") that the difference between prodigious talent and genius is made explicit. And of course comparison between Spohr's timid "Erlkönig" and Schubert's infernal creation is as inevitable as it is cruel. As one would expect from such an experienced Lieder artist, it's a beautifully constructed programme, with songs carefully placed for maximum variety, not just of tone but also of instrumentation (excellent playing from clarinettist Eric Hoeprich and violinist Nils-Erik Sparf). This is another winner from von Otter and friends. --Harriet Smith

5.0 out of 5 stars Rare works superbly played and sung 6 Nov 2010
By Pw Boucher
Format:Audio CD
This an exquisite rendering of unusual repertoire. Von Otter at her peak. Superb and sensitive piano playing by Melvyn Tan with peerless classical clarinettist Eric Hoeprich.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good sing 23 Sep 2001
By Big Bad John - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a nifty collection of lieder, including many which are not familiar. Melvin Tan's fortepiano balances the voice nicely, and the addition of other instruments and voices obviates the boredom which often sets in after five or ten songs. Von Otter handles these songs well, rarely breaking into operatic timbre. The new (to me) setting of The Earl-King was especially interesting. Very worthwhile if you like lieder (texts are in German, mostly; translation included).

5.0 out of 5 stars Forte-Piano Adds Interest 30 Sep 2008
By J. Matson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Anne Sofie von Otter sings expressively and beautifully, as usual. Melvyn Tan accompanies on the forte-piano, which gives a new sonic flavor to these songs, some of which are well-known.
