Wings I/T Night Swedish Songs
Don't worry if most of these composers are unfamiliar, this is an essential recital of Swedish songs by one of the greatest Lieder singers of modern times, caught in her vocal prime. It's a bit like going to a fantastic concert except that you don't have to worry about the sweet-wrapper rustlers, the snorers or the mobile phones that tend to dog live music-making. Here Anne Sofie von Otter and her willing accomplice, Bengt Forsberg, take you on a tantalising voyage of discovery--from the Grieg-like songs of Emil Sjögren to the explorations of Ture Rangström, this will have you switching from track to track trying to pick favourites. Even the briefest songs conjure a world of their own, heavy with emotion--Wilhelm Stenhammar's "Jutta Comes to the Volkungs" or Rangström's "The Farewell", or the simple charm of Wilhelm Peterson-Berger's "Aspaker's Polka" or Hugo Alfvén's haunting "The Forest is Asleep". And the list goes on. Take one at a time or gorge upon the entire 70-plus minutes at one sitting: you're guaranteed to come back hungry for more. --Harriet Smith Binding Audio CD.
