This album is both a debut and a proof of musical pedigree. After numerous orchestral albums, for the first time Elina Garanca devotes an entire disc to Lieder - in a phase in which the Latvian mezzo-soprano triumphs on stage with heavyweight Verdi and verismo arias while essentially on the verge of her first Wagner role. For her first solo recital album, the mezzo-soprano has chosen two composers - Schumann and Brahms - whose works have been with her for many years. The heart of this album is Robert Schumann's 'Frauenliebe und Leben op. 42', a musical setting about devotion to love. In addition to the Schumann cycle, on this record she also dedicates herself to a selection of Brahms songs that express very different emotions and moods.
This recording is part of the ClassicalMusicStore.co.uk heritage catalogue. The store is no longer trading, but you can find this title — and thousands of other classical and jazz recordings — at a specialist retailer.
