Elīna Garanča reflects facets of night-time on her latest Deutsche Grammophon release When Night Falls. The soprano chose a selection of orchestral songs, as well as works for voice and piano or guitar, that she performs together with the Orquestra Filarmónica de Gran Canaria, the Berlin Music Ensemble and the DG artists Albrecht Mayer and Raphaël Feuillâtre, among others. Commenting on the spectrum of rich colours from sunset to the silence of the night, Garanča notes: 'I hope this music will allow listeners to tune out the world for a few minutes and completely immerse themselves in the special magic of the hours of night.'

Garanča performs traditional songs as well as vocal nocturnes by Schubert, Brahms, Strauss, Humperdinck and several composers from Spain and her beloved Latvian homeland.
