Track Listing:

Liszt: Oh! Quand Je Dors Enfant, si j'étais roi (Hugo) Gastibelza Comment, disaient-ils (Hugo) Im Rhein, im schönen Strome Die Lorelei Die Vätergruft Petrarch Sonnet No. 104 Années de Pèlerinage: Deuxième année, Italie, S161/5 Sonetto 47 del Petrarca (“Benedetto sia il giorno”) Petrarch Sonnet No. 123 Go not, happy day Gebet, S265 Morgens steh ich auf und frage Ein Fichtenbaum steht einsam Du bist wie eine Blume Wie singt die Lerche schon Blume und Duft Und wir dachten der Toten Über allen Gipfeln ist Ruh

Perhaps stemming from his years touring Europe as a virtuoso pianist or from his later émigré life in Paris, Franz Liszt’s choice of song texts reflect his ‘polyglot’ attraction to the 19th Century literature and culture of many different countries, shown in these settings of French, German, Italian, English, Russian and Hungarian words.
