Ondine presents its second release from star baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky who here sings Russian Lieder by Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky and Taneyev.Dmitri Hvorostovsky is recognized as one of the leading and most charismatic baritones of our time, performing internationally at the world's biggest opera houses. Hovrostovsky and his longstanding collaborator, Estonian pianist Ivari Ilja, have frequently performed to great critical acclaim.Tchaikovsky composed his song collection Six Songs, Op. 73 in 1893, the year of his death. The songs are full of musical nostalgia.Mussorgsky wrote his Songs and Dances of Death between 1875 and 1877 - a period of frenzied creativity after the première of Boris Godunov.Taneyev's songs are full of emotional excitement, especially Anxiously beats the heart from the Then Romances, Op. 17.
