Richard Strauss: Four Last Songs; Songs & Arias

Richard Strauss: Four Last Songs; Songs & Arias

Fleming; Münchener Symphonie Orchester; Thielemann

Renee Fleming, the world's leading lyric soprano, records the exquisitely beautiful Four Last Songs by Richard Strauss in a brand new recording. Fleming recorded these songs once before, ten years ago before she had ever sung them live. Since then, these enduringly popular showcases for the soprano voice have become signature pieces for Fleming and a regular and much-loved part of her concert repertoire.

"The sound is stupendous, Fleming's voice complemented by the Munich Orchestra, with Thieleman bringing out every detail in Strauss's nostalgic orchestration."
Gramophone

"Fleming's voice has gained in distinctiveness and diction, to splendidly dramatic effect, often with a real float at the top."
BBC Music Magazine

"With her creamy soprano tone, her ability to float a high phrase, and her sustained sense of legato , it's as if Renée Fleming was born to shine in music of Richard Strauss. And so it proves."
Classic FM Magazine

"The tone is as gorgeous as ever..."
