Mompou (1893-1987)

Description:

A collection of songs that encapsulate the beauty and elegance that Montpauw pursued throughout his lifeFederico Montpauw, born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, is also known as the "Poet of the Piano," and his serene music is unique among 20th century composers. The beauty and elegance that Mompou pursued throughout his life are fully expressed in his vocal music. The unique floating melody and the piano accompaniment like the sound of bells are impressive. The Montpauw family has been bell-makers since the 15th century, and this piece seems to pay homage to their ancestors. Julia Zoffie Wagner's clear and luminous voice blends beautifully with Montpauw's delicate and exquisitely paced music. King International
