composed by Franz Schubert

There are many supremely beautiful volumes in Graham Johnson's Schubert edition -- Fassbaender's, Popp's, Ameling's, Hampson's, Bostridge's -- but this Goethe Schubertiad is as supremely beautiful as the best of them. Of course, Goethe always brought out the best in the passionate young composer and his Goethe songs are among the greatest of ...

composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

Indeed, ...

composed by Gabriel Fauré

The first volume of Hyperion's complete Fauré songs is called "Au bord de l'eau" (by the water's edge) -- a reference to the French master's fondness for aquatic, nautical, and natural subjects in poetry, as well as to the title of one of his most famous songs. Having decided against a purely chronological survey of Fauré's songs, an approach that ...

When it comes to extravagant colors, extraordinary drama, integrated harmonies, and inexorable tragedy, it's hard to beat Handel's 1739 oratorio Saul. Upon the sturdy architecture of Charles Jennens' libretto based on the First Book of Samuel, Handel built a mighty three-act edifice of astonishing cogency and astounding effectiveness. In this ...
