Brahms: Complete Songs Vol.5

• New Store Stock

Graham Johnson is both accompanist and curator of this series that presents the entire piano-accompanied songs and vocal works of Johannes Brahms. Each recital disc represents a different journey through the repertoire (and thus through Brahms's life). This fifth volume presents the songs of Op.33, the composer's only true song cycle. A full exploration of this intriguing music is to be found in Graham Johnson's erudite booklet notes. The vocal soloist is the winner of the Lieder Prize at the 1997 Cardiff Singer of the World Competition, Christopher Maltman.
