Description: Covering Hartmann's career from 1857-92, these songs will show influences from many of his contemporaries (contemporary critics pointed this out, as well as the fact that Hartmann reused some of his own melodies); some are in a generalized, Germanic-European style and, not surprisingly, the Norwegian Lyric Poetry makes use of Norwegian folk material. 2 CDs. Danish and German texts (English summaries). Iben Vestergård (soprano), Cathrine Penderup (piano).
