Aus ?Letzte Blätter? Von Hermann Von Gilm. Par STRAUSS RICHARD. New practical edition of the “Acht Gedichte” op. 10 by Richard Strauss from “Letzte Blätter” by Austrian poet Hermann von Gilm (1812-1864). Strauss composed these songs in 1885 when he was 21 years old. He often accompanied his wife, the soprano Pauline Strauss-de Ahna, on the piano and worked with her on interpretations of his piano songs. The resulting entries of the composer (e.g. performance markings) are reproduced in this edition. Included are three of the best-known of his songs, „Zueignung“ No. 1 (“Devotion“), „Nichts“ No. 2 (“Nought“) and „Die Nacht“ No. 3 (“Night“). The songs in this edition are set in their original keys. Based on the text of “Richard Strauss Works” – Critical Edition (RSW), with English translations by John Bernhoff./ Répertoire / Voix Haute et Piano

Par STRAUSS RICHARD. This new practical edition of the 'Vier Lieder' ('Four songs') Op. 27 for high voice is based on the text of 'Richard Strauss Works ' Critical Edition'. The lyrics were translated into English by John Bernhoff. Beginning with op. 27, Strauss turned to settings of poems by a new generation of lyricists of his age with whom he was sometimes in personal contact (Karl Henckell, Heinrich Hart, John Henry Mackay). The four songs 'Ruhe, meine Seele!' ('Rest Thee, My Spirit!'), 'Cäcilie' ('Cecily'), 'Heimliche Aufforderung' ('The Lover's Pledge') and 'Morgen!' ('Tomorrow!') are among the composer's best known and most popular songs, which is why he later arranged three of them as orchestral songs. At www.richard-strauss-ausgabe.de you will find supplementary digital content for the Richard Strauss Edition (published by the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, Munich, under the leadership of Hartmut Schick in cooperation with the Richard Strauss Institute, Garmisch-Partenkirchen). All songs in this edition are in their original keys./ Répertoire / Voix Haute et Clavier

Par SZYMANOWSKI KAROL. The composition of the Princess Songs marked the beginning of a particularly productive phase for Karol Szymanowski. Based on a series of poems by his sister Zofia, Szymanowski composed this colorful and glittering music in 1915; its exotic, lyrical and fantastical world is expressed in the coloratura soprano’s many passages, featuring trills and rapid runs. The princess herself remains mysteriously undefined. Love is her only recurrent theme. By withdrawing into internal fantasy during a time of war, Szymanowski found an opportunity to retreat into a dream world, and composing songs remained an important part of his lifelong work; in 1933 he arranged three of the six Princess Songs for voice and orchestra. (Sakari Oramo orchestrated the other three and conducted their first performance in 2012). (Translation on UE website by Grant Chorley.)/ Répertoire / Voix Haute et Piano
