Matthias Lika * Drama - Songs Based On Poems By Heinrich Heine [New CD]

$19.99 Sale

Pocket-sized dramaIn essence, the texts by Heine featured in this compilation are taken from his Book of Songs. Behind each title lies a unique personal drama, sometimes in an oriental-style setting (Rubinstein's Der Asra) and occasionally in the finest Rhine Romantic tradition (Clara Schumann's Lorelei). They recount medieval episodes, transporting us into fantastical fairy-tale worlds, providing an escape from everyday life into an imaginary scenario. This is the order of the day, just as it was back then, because perhaps, especially in our often unromantic times, it is not such a bad idea to have someone sing you a song.
