Mahler (1860-1911)

Description:

Jonas Kaufmann, the most popular tenor singer in the world today, sings Mahler's "Song of the Earth" with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. The work is a fusion of symphony and song, with lyrics freely adapted from Chinese poems by Li Bai, Meng Hao Chan, and Wang Wei, and is in six movements. This is truly a challenge to unprecedented territory, and only Kaufmann, who is in the groove, could do it. Listening to this, expectations are high for the postponed Japan tour in August 2017. In Vienna, Kaufman received rave reviews, saying, "It is moving to see the scale of this work's conception controlled by a single voice. And his partner is amazing! Jonathan Nott, born in England in 1962 and the music director of the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra and the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, recorded Mahler's complete symphonies with the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra on the Swiss TUDER label from 2003 to 2011, and is highly regarded as a major Mahler performer.Songs of the Earth was recorded for TUDER in February 2016 with the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra, Robert Sacca (tenor), and Stephen Gadd (baritone), making it unusual for a recording to appear with two different orchestras in such a short time. Nott's debut with the Vienna Philharmonic was in 2007 at the Vienna Moderne, and this is his first recording with the orchestra. The orchestra is the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, of which Mahler was the chief conductor, and which has produced masterpieces of the "Song of the Earth" according to the times, including Walter, Bernstein, and Boulez. Its clear and rich sound is captured remarkably in the latest recording. Sony Music
