| Baritone Florian Boesch and pianist Malcolm Martineau continue their successful collaboration on Linn with Brahms & Wolf: Liede, a recital pairing two geniuses who hated each other.
Exploring the rivalry between Johannes Brahms and Hugo Wolf, the album showcases some of their most compelling songs which express deep emotion and philosophical themes. Brahms’s Vier ernste Gesänge, written in memory of Clara Schumann, contrasts melancholy with transcendence, whilst lieder like Sehnsucht and Die Trauernde evoke poignant pain and unresolved longing.
Wolf, in his Goethe and Michelangelo songs, captures profound existential reflections, contrasting fame with love and weaving harmonies that echo the complexities of human emotion. The album concludes with Wolf’s Prometheus, a tour-de-force of maximum power befitting Florian and Malcolm, two giants of the lieder scene.
