Title: FOUR LAST SONGS/DEATH & TRANS Street Release Date: 01/23/1996 Domestic Genre: CLASSICAL COMPOSERS Gundula Janowitz had a very beautiful voice that critics like to describe as "creamy," whatever that means. Strauss had a life-long love affair with the soprano voice. He even married one--not just the voice, the whole woman, of course. His Four Last Songs constitute his dying tribute, and they are probably the most hedonistically gorgeous vocal works in existence. Herbert vo Karajan was a Strauss specialist, as was Janowitz, and together they contrive to perform the songs about as perfectly as they ever have been. The couplings, two orchestral works from the beginning and end of Strauss's career, are quite appropriate: the last of the Four Songs quotes the "Transfiguration" theme from the tone poem. --David Hurwitz Details Is Discontinued By Manufacturer : No Language : English Product Dimensions : 5.59 x 4.96 x 0.39 inches; 3.67 ounces Manufacturer : Deutsche Grammophon Item model number : 80515 Original Release Date : 1996 SPARS Code : DDD Date First Available : December 8, 2006 Label : Deutsche Grammophon Quality Products This will be shipped securely Returns must be within 30 days - item EXACTLY as it was sent.
