Description:

Two masterpieces that reflect the clarity of R. Strauss's last years. The new album by Rachel Willis-Sorensen, a soprano who now dominates major opera houses in Europe and the United States, includes "Four Last Songs," a collection of Richard Strauss's famous songs that seem to reflect the clear and clear state of his last years, and the final scene from his last opera, Capriccio. The combination of these two songs is reminiscent of past masterpieces by Schwarzkopf and Tomova-Sintow. The album has been praised by Oryx France as "melancholic and lyrical music with a dark, deep and distinctive tone, and the brilliant yet fragile sound of the singing recalls that of Renée Fleming" (Oryx France). The Gewandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig, conducted by Andris Nelsons, provides exquisite accompaniment, as only Nelsons, who has extensive experience in opera houses and knows the singers' breathing well, can, and the rich sonority of the prestigious Gewandhaus Orchestra adds the ultimate flower to this performance.
