Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Dvorák, Janácek and Martinu are not names which spring immediately to mind when love songs are mentioned, and yet this fascinating collection gives us a taste of what delights we have been missing. They range from seven Moravian folk songs, collected by Janácek at the turn of the century, to songs written by Martinu in the United States in 1942. There's also early Martinu--including songs he collected in Slovakia in 1920--plus the world-premiere recording of Songs for a Friend of My Country, a cycle he wrote in France in 1940 on his way to America. All these songs are of interest in giving us another aspect of their composer's work; most have much more to offer. Many are achingly lovely, especially those by Dvorák, including his op.2, a reworking of four songs from a cycle he had written almost 20 years earlier, and Love Songs, a revision of eight songs from the same cycle. "Good night, my darling", from his 1886 cycle In Folk Tone, is worth the price of this CD alone. Magadlena Kozena, who put together the programme, sings with pure, attractive tone. Graham Johnson is her excellent accompanist. --Richard Fawkes
