Apparition

Music by George Crumb & Henry Purcell


Crumb:

Three Early Songs

Apparition

Purcell:

From Rosy Bowers (From Don Quixote)

Sweeter than Roses

Thrice happy lovers (An Epithalamium)

Ah! How sweet It Is to Love

If music be the food of love

Music for a while, Z583

Not all my torments can your pity move, Z400

Crown the altar

Dido and Aeneas: Dido's Lament


Christine Schäfer (soprano) & Eric Schneider (piano/amplified piano)

“The first part of the disc intersperses Crumb's moderately Coplandesque Three Early Songs (1947) with Purcell favourites like "Sweeter than Roses" and "Music for a While". The sovereign authority of Schäfer's voice and the intensity of her presence makes for a seamless narrative, and the clarity of her diction and innate dramatic sensibility revitalise the Purcell works.” Gramophone Magazine, March 2008
