- A unique and wonderful selection of Lieder by Robert (and Clara) Schumann, witnessing their musical love dialogue.
- Protagonists of this cleverly thought-out release are the young Dutch baritone Raoul Steffani (“This is an exceptionally fine debut recording for an already well-developed singer.” American Record Guide about his CC 72785) and one of the greatest singers of our time, Magdalena Kožená.
- A true delight for heart and mind!
Raoul Steffani: The album you have here is the culmination of a long-cherished desire – a programme devoted to both Robert and Clara Schumann and the musical dialogue that blossomed between them during the early years of their married life, through their poems and song compositions. I am absolutely delighted and grateful for the opportunity to record this programme along with a selection of Robert Schumann’s most beautiful duets, in a truly luxurious pairing with mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kožená and my regular piano accompanist Gerold Huber.
