| Summary |
At the Verbier Festival in 2007 then in 2010, Anne Sofie von Otter, accompanied by Sylvia Schwartz, Christoph Prégardien and Markus Werba, performs several Lieder and the Liebeslieder Waltzes composed by Brahms. A great musical time spent with the brilliant Swedish mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter, about whom the magazine Opera Now said: "She possesses one of the most flexible and natural vocal instruments of any living artist." For both concerts, respectively recorded in 2007 and in 2010 at the Verbier Festival, she performs Brahms's "Lieder" with an incredible vocal finesse and energy, that give life to these musical poems composed by Brahms. At the Verbier Festival in 2010, Anne Sofie von Otter, Sylvia Schwartz, Christoph Prégardien and Markus Werba gather then to perform the Liebeslieder Waltzes, a cycle constituted of eighteen love songs that Brahms composed after Polydora, ein weltpoetisches Liederbuch texts written by a German poet, Georg Friederich Daumer. |
