Description: This series continues with works for mezzo-soprano pretty evenly divided between earlier, virtuosic and richly imagined pieces and later, darker, post-Weimar songs which tend to the austere and minimalist style of Liszt’s final two decades. German, French-English texts. Sasha Cooke (mezzo), Julius Drake (piano).
