  • Description

    \u25CF Transcending the barriers of time, two 20-th century composers dialogue with a genius who lived centuries earlier. An immense painter, sculptor, architect, Michelangelo (1475-1564) wrote poetry expressing turmoil, restlessness, personal and professional anger, written in an energetic and passionate language. Both Dmitri Shostakovich and Benjamin Britten found inspiration in his texts, and by setting them to music they show their own feelings in a highly personal and characteristic way. \u25CF This new recording presents the "7 Sonnets Op. 22" by Benjamin Britten (1913- 1976), and the Michelangelo Suite Op. 145 by Dmitri Shostakovich (1906- 1975), both intensely expressive and dramatic, each in his own unique musical language. \u25CF Sung by Mark Milhofer (tenor) and Mirco Palazzi (bass), Marco Scolastra is their piano partner. Mark Milhofer's recording of the Folk Songs by Britten for Brilliant Classics received many excellent reviews, including a "Recommended Recording of the Month" on Musicweb.
