Forgotten Songs
Release Date: March 18, 1997 SK67190 CD Album Dawn Upshaw's star is ascendant -- her albums have received widespread popularity, while her live appearances elicit superlatives from critics around the world. Forgotten Songs: Dawn Upshaw Sings Debussy reveals Upshaw at her finest, performing a collection of rarely heard art songs by Debussy, a composer best known for his works for piano and for orchestra. Her accompanist for this recital is a musician regarded as the leading exponent of fine singing, Maestro James Levine. Upshaw performs this deeply romantic repertoire, settings of poems by such Symbolist luminaries as Baudelaire, Verlaine, Gautier, and Bourget, with a clarity and intelligence no other singer could provide; the conclusion is nothing less than entirely enchanting. |
