Brava Bonney!.......1999-12-04

I've listened to many recordings of "Fraunliebe", and although I still would not give up my precious disc with Lucia Popp's interpretation (now out of print), Bonney's interpretation is so moving on account of it's very convincing use of rubato. I listened to Bonney sing these songs (meaning "Fraunliebe" and some of Clara Schumann's) in Vienna. Her interpretation (especially through rubato) gave me the impression that she was not singing but speaking -- more specifically, speaking to *me*, about all the joys and sorrows of life. Of course I'm aware that she wasn't really doing so, but the effect was just magical. And now I enjoy that same impression every time I listen to this CD! Ashkenazy accompanies with utmost sensitivity, bringing out some voices which one doesn't usually hear. And yes, Clara Schumann's Lieder are beautiful in their own right. Has anyone noticed that "Er ist gekommen" resembles the D minor episode of the last movement of Robert's "Kreisleriana"? Also, Clara's "Mein Stern" resembles the chorale-like theme from the end of the penultimate movement of "Kreisleriana." Any musicologists out there who might know what to make of this? I know Clara and Robert were fond of quoting each other in their own compositions, so it's hard to imagine these cases being mere coincidences of musical invention...

A Beautiful Blend of Passion and Poetry.......1999-01-08

This CD is one of the most beautiful recordings of Schumann lieder I have heard to date. I recently wrote a paper for a music history class about Robert Schumann's use of "musical code" (imagery through musical motives) in the song cycle "Frauenliebe und Leben." During my research, I fell in love with the song cycle, which is a perfect blend of passion and poetry. I had listened to several recordings, but none paired piano and voice so well as Bonney and Ashkenazy have. "Frauenliebe und Leben" was meant to be a vocal/piano duet rather than merely a vocal solo with piano accompaniment, and they have captured the essence of the song cycle in that respect. Bonney's gorgeous, mellow voice and Ashkenazy's perfectly complementary, soulful interpretation give this album a truly "romantic" feel--both emotionally and musically. I highly recommend this album for lovers of "Frauenliebe und Leben." I plan to share this album with my accompanist as we prepare for my upcoming senior recital, in which I will perform this song cycle. Bonney and Ashkenazy's portrayal of "woman's love and life" is inspirational. Five stars, three thumbs up, and a big "WOW!" for this album.

A Welcome Entrée into Lieder from a True Artist.......2002-07-29

What a surprise this disk came as! Yes, I awaited it anxiously, but from Bernarda Fink's gripping portrayal of Penelope (in the ravishing René Jacobs recording of Monteverdi's _Il Ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria_) I was expecting lieder singing of relentless intensity à la Fassbaender! Not that it would have been unwelcome, but we are treated to a performance of shimmering beauty.

One of the most arresting qualities of the disk is how closely the mezzo-soprano's voice matches the piano. The best Lieder performances are partnerships, and Schumann's emphasis of the piano part is especially rewarding, but here there is something more with a kinship of tone that really makes you feel that it is a single voice presenting the text, with the piano expressing the thoughts not verbalized! Fink is also blessed with a tight vibrato that she commands with precise nuance ("nur betrachten deinen Schein" in the second song of _Frauenliebe_; "fest und fester" in the sixth song; "Warte nur" in "Nachtlied").

The oft-trodden _Frauenliebe und -leben_ does not leave the listener hankering for any of Fink's illustrious predecessors. It is a committed, whole-hearted, and ravishing telling of the cycle. I might have wished for a slightly hushed tone in the sixth song where she hints at her expectant state ("Süsser Freund") but it expands meltingly at "Weisst du nun die Tränen". The hardest song for any singer to gage is the seventh one, to her newborn, "An meinem Herzen." Fink and Vignoles take it at the right pace, although I might have wanted a little pause, right before the third stanza, dividing the two halves of the song, for the new mother to catch her breath and renew her delight. The final song in the cycle, on the death of her husband, is ever the heartbreaker, but I missed the crushing quality most accompanists give the opening chord. Fink's coloring of the word "Schleier" ("veil") is haunting.

The rest of the disk is mostly made up of less familiar songs, with the exception of "Nussbaum," "Aufträge," and "Lotosblume." But what wonders she reveals in the familiar and neglected alike. The Schumann version of "Kennst du das Land" ("Mignon") is not quite as well-known as either Schubert or Wolff but it definitely adds to our understanding of the homesick waif portrayed. The impact of this song rests less in tonal and melodic drama, like the other versions mentioned, but with the phrasing and rhythmic shifts and minute chromatic differences between stanzas. "Der Nussbaum" can often be cloying with its incessant inner rhymes, but Fink has a directness, a bond with the meaning as well as the words, and vocal substance that get us past anything saccharine in the music. "Lotosblume" avoids the same pitfall by emphasizing the mysterious over the pathetic. These two and "Aufträge" also benefit from the more full-bodied but still sunny mezzo voice as opposed to the chirping soprano more often encountered in these songs. "Ständchen" has the direct, innocuous appeal of a Mendelssohn setting. "Nachtlied" ("Über allen Gipfeln ist Ruh'") lacks the instant indelibility of Schubert's setting, but it has a neat resolution from gloomy minor chords to a major-key resignation in the final reiterations of "Balde ruhest du auch" ("Soon too will you rest"). She taps into a more soprano-like voice for "Der Sandmann". "Das verlassne Mägdlein" is not far from Wolff's more famous setting in its pace and melodic/harmonic direction although again there is a little hopefulness in the final chord. The character piece "Kartenlegerin" is winningly portrayed ... almost an mini-epic ballad for a curious and mischievous girl.

The late Lenau set, opus 90, is completely new to me. It leans toward the instrumental quality of Brahms lieder and the harmonic opulence of Strauss. There is an undercurrent of gentle heartache but Schumann does not surrender himself or his audience to it wholesale. ("Einsamkeit" sounds on and off like the desolate song about Ophelia, "Herzeleid" from later still, but doesn't sink to her depths; and the following song "Der schwere Abend" has echos of "Ich hab' im Traum geweinet" from _Dichterliebe".) Heartfulness is the prevalent sentiment here, with splendid opportunity for Fink to unfurl her refulgent tone to the fullest. In short, these songs couldn't hope for a more convincing exponent! Brava!

The acoustic has a little church-like resonance. It's good to absorb Fink's rich voice, but in the staccato of "Ich kann's nicht fassen" (_Frauenliebe_'s third song) you lose a marginal amount of the intimacy that this cycle calls for even in excitement.

Finally, I will mention that the liner note serves up the standard modern apologia for the texts of _Frauenliebe_. I personally have never understood the aversion to these songs, just because they embody a woman's traditional experience in that era. For all her adulation and devotion, I find this woman a lot les subservient than either of the protagonists of the two great Schubert cycles -- a man who trudges through the snow for 24 songs because his girlfriend dumps him, winds up insane or drowned ... I also think that the use of the word "Herr" ("I bow to my lord") in the fifth song, in the context of marriage, is at least meant to suggest the religious and spiritual context of the vows she is about to take.

I hope this CD and these songs find an enthusiastic audience. Many thanks to the artists, and to Bernarda Fink especially, for a brilliant début in Lieder.

True greatness!.......2002-07-17

Bernarda Fink is a rare phenomenon on the current musical scene. Nobody ever called her "a hot property of classical music", she was never "the real thing", "singing sensation" or "the new darling of the industry" - and thank God for that. She maintained a low profile through many years of a very distinguished career and became a real favorite with connoisseurs. I wouldn't hesitate to call her a golden age singer and there are only very, very few who deserve this title today. In a way, it is refreshing to see that the classical music industry didn't get hold of her and of a few other magnificent singers (Isokoski, Podles, Karneus to give examples of female singers only, for here the industry is at its most damaging); on the other hand it inspires a bitter reflection: where is the industry going? what is wrong with these exquisite artists that it takes so long for big record companies to record them, but it is enough for pretty but inexperienced young singers just to turn up and get exclusive contracts with the giants? It is just beyond my comprehension why we are to get excited about singers in the making, about whom most of what can be said now is the promise of "great things to come" (as critics and record companies' PRs stubbornly try to convince us) while so much is going on right now and from singers who are in their prime. And in Fink's case what a prime it is! It's true that she certainly hasn't been neglected by record companies (she has an impressive collection of recordings to her name, most of which can be called events, often thanks to her contribution alone) but it is surprising that she has had to wait so many years to produce her first solo recital. Happily things are changing now and her collaboration with Hyperion brings another solo disc, an album of Argentinian songs, which should be an event too.

As for the present disc, it contains the most wonderful Lieder recital I've heard in years. It comes from a mature and experienced singer, which is a blessing after a series of recent recitals recorded by singers much too young (Lieder singing became a kind of fashion, a noble fashion to be sure, but often leaving me in doubt as to the sincerity of the involvement of some performers). Fink's artistry is stupendous! She approaches these songs humbly, with an almost self-effacing modesty and yet with extraordinary individuality. This is true greatness! The timbre of Fink's unique voice, with its noble ring, gives this recital a very special flavor. It is the same quality that makes her singing in oratorio so deeply touching and her operatic creations truly aristocratic. Yet this voice can also sound playful - as Fink proved in Mozart's "Cosi fan tutte" under Rene Jacobs - and it is rewarding to find this playful side of her singing so well represented on this disc ("Der Sandmann", for example).
There is little sense in comparing this recital with other recent or older recordings of Schumann Lieder or even analyzing it song by song (though I can't help not mentioning the marvellous, breathtakingly 'breathless' "Nachtlied", just to give one example of Fink's artistry). Fink gives us something unique and very much her own while still obeying all the rules of Lieder singing. Thanks should go to Harmonia Mundi, one of the very few record companies who haven't stopped producing little wonders without much regard for current marketing trends. My only complaint concerns the packaging, the now almost ubiquitous digipak. I can't hide my impatience with this new packaging practice though I have to admit that the quality of HM's digipaks is far superior to other record companies'. Still, why is the booklet permanently glued inside the cardboard case, making it difficult to follow the texts? There is an even more serious problem with the booklet that makes it quite useless for following the texts: it contains misprints, inexcusable errors and omissions, so those who don't know the poems by heart or don't read German should use some other printed source. Happily Fink's crystalline diction makes the texts beautifully clear for those who choose just to listen to her. Still, it's a shame that this wonderful disc is accompanied by such a messy booklet, but this is not the first nor the last victim of sloppy editing. And all this in the age of computers that were supposed to make our lives easier and better... If anything makes our lives better, if not necessarily easier, it is a recital like this one. In a flood of mediocrity, miracles still happen... (Kicek)

Graham Johnson's complete Schubert song marathon for Hyperion reached the finishing post recently, but for anyone suffering withdrawal symptoms, the award-winning Schumann song series goes from strength to strength and now reaches its fifth volume with this fine program featuring the warmly lyrical baritone of Christopher Maltman, winner of the Lieder prize at the 1997 Cardiff Singer of the World competition. This disc is devoted to settings of Heine, and on the way to the celebrated Dichterliebe there are 20 songs, including four by Schumann's wife, Clara. There are so many delights to be found here, and the combination of a beautiful voice, Johnson's superbly sensitive playing, and the intimacy of Hyperion's benchmark recorded sound must surely propel this toward an awards ceremony or two. As usual, the disc comes with scholarly but completely accessible notes by Johnson. Sometimes it takes longer to read the notes than listen to the song, but it is always worth it--Johnson's insight is constantly illuminating. The Dichterliebe cycle is an intimate, deeply felt performance, winningly understated, and a great tribute to the intelligent musicality of both performers. It concludes a disc that absolutely bursts with goodies--77 minutes of bliss. --Keith Clarke

Restraint and overdoing it.......2004-02-13

Although the quality of singing and playing is as high as every other endeavour in this project, this is the first recording that feels "padded." The inclusion of two chorus settings--"Die Minnesaenger" and "Die Lotusblume"--not only add little to the concert but actually disrupt the flow for me. There are also four songs by Clara Schumann which don't do much for the whole concert either, especially her trite setting of "Lorelei." Graham Johnson's notes, which I always enjoy tremendously, also felt padded and less witty than usual. This is the first time I felt the desire to be comprehensive overtook the quality of the individual disc.

These songs will melt and break your heart. Listeners accustomed to Schumann's single-poet cycles may be surprised at the poems' uneven quality, and that, like Schubert, he could set them all with equal empathy. The program includes famous and unfamiliar songs from both Schumann's early fertile and more barren later years, mostly love offerings for Clara: hopeful, anxious, ardent, passionate, as well as somber, sorrowful and despairing. Goerne opens with the vigorous "Ins Freie," then groups the songs around a mood, allowing the listener--and himself--to become fully one with it. This means many slow, pensive, inward, tender, yearning songs in succession, but they contain so much diversity that there is never a hint of sameness. Besides, the singing is absolutely riveting. Goerne's voice is like soft, dark velvet; its warmth enfolds the listener's ear with a caressing, aching beauty and purity. Its variety of color and nuance is matched by Goerne's range of expression and intensity; he can evoke the ghostly apparitions in "Mein Wagen rollet langsam," project the soaring ecstasy in "Widmung," the sorrow of parting, the chaste adoration of a flower for the moon, and the menace of the dramatic ballads "Die Löwenbraut" and "Belsazar." Even that old chestnut, "Die beiden Grenadiere," becomes both moving and heroic. He is mightily abetted by Eric Schneider, a superb partner who makes one aware that Schumann's wonderfully written, poetic piano parts are independent miniature masterpieces. --Edith Eisler

Songs of Love, Longing, and Loss.......2005-06-02

Subtlety and intimacy seem to be the inspiration for this truly wonderful set of Schumann's songs of love remembered, lost, and longed for, and Matthias Goerne interprets them to perfection. Goerne's voice is rich and elegant and text-sensitive and when he sings the softer songs here, his mastery of technique is one of wonder.

Not all of the songs included in this recital are well known: many of these selections are from both ends of the composer's life spectrum. This recording should bring the lesser-known songs to the attention of other singers! Though Goerne's voice is never less than beautiful his forte appears to be the quiet, intimate songs where he is able to create a delicacy and sadness that are almost unbearably lovely.

Goerne is ably partnered by Eric Schneider at the piano. They communicate well and demonstrate that mutual respect that signals fine collaboration. This is a treasureable album and is further evidence that Matthias Goerne is one of our leading lieder recitalists today. Highly recommended. Grady Harp, June 05

The Mastersinger.......2000-06-24

If the second half of the 20th Century has musical signs, they must include that phenomenal German singer Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau who dominated the recital and concert halls, the opera stages and the recording studios in a way no other artist has done it, except maybe Leonard Bernstein. In celebration of this great artist's 75th birthday we have here a set which includes the gems of his lieder repertoire, starting with those great Schubert cycles in their most vivid performances. Just listen to those early renditions of the Schone Mullerin or with Jorg Demus, or to Schuman's Dichterliebe cycle (with the same pianist). And you shall not miss the artistry of this most sensitive voice in full volume of Mahler lieder with piano and orchestral songs. And what about the Morike lieder by Hugo Wolf? Well, you shall probably wonder at that special cooperation between the singer and the Russian pianist Svitoslav Richter. It is a performance of lifetime, and so it is with the Wintereise of Schubert with Barnboim at the piano. Those who know the artistry of Fischer-Dieskau and even those who have already other recordings of those great works will not regret having this special set. For the newcomers to this great artist there will be a lot to discover, The music itself, sure, but mainly the art of interpratation. In this alone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau shine high and above all other singers.
