Description: | Bohuslav Martinu honed his songwriting craft in between composing larger orchestral works, his yearning for home reflected in the Four Songs to Czech Folk Texts written during desperate times in the Second World War. Sourced from previously unpublished manuscripts, this unique programme presents world premiere recordings of earlier songs written during summer holidays in Policka, as well as the Three Songs after Poems by Guillaume Apollinaire, long thought to e lost but miraculously unearthed just weeks before this recording. Pianist Giorgio Koukl regards these songs as similar to pearls, "born out of hardship, pain and discomfort and, after a while, becoming precious and admired.""Lieder Vol.5" is a captivating CD release featuring the acclaimed mezzo-soprano Jana Hrochova and renowned pianist Giorgio Koukl, produced by Naxos. This volume continues the exploration of lesser-known yet richly expressive lieder repertoire, offering listeners an immersive journey through evocative melodies and poetic texts. Jana Hrochova's warm, nuanced voice pairs beautifully with Giorgio Koukl?s sensitive piano accompaniment, bringing each song to life with emotional depth and technical finesse. The album stands as a testament to both artists' dedication to their craft?Hrochova has been praised for her performances in leading opera houses across Europe, while Koukl is celebrated for his interpretations of 20th-century composers.
