To celebrate the 150th birthday of Richard Strauss, TwoPianists Records is proud to introduce a new, authoritative, 9-DISC SET of the COMPLETE WORKS FOR VOICE AND PIANO by STRAUSS -- a seminal collection that is set to become the reference standard for these vocal masterpieces, not least because of the inclusion of the first ever recordings of two Strauss songs: "Aus der Kindheit" and "Herbstabend," TrV226.
Under the artistic guidance of renowned mezzo-soprano, Strauss expert and stage director Brigitte Fassbaender, the project brings together 13 singers, handpicked by Fassbaender, to record the 179 extant songs and two melodramas that comprise Strauss's oeuvre for voice and piano. Praised for their performances on the opera stage and in the concert hall, these German speaking singers, the majority of whom are notable Strauss interpreters, have more than done justice to the varying interpretive styles required by the songs.
This 9-CD box set will be officially launched on R. Strauss' birthday, 11 June, on the Richard-Strauss-Festival by Brigitte Fassbaender.
