Description: | Throughout her fifty year career Barbara Hendricks has shown
herself to be one of the greatest champions of French song. This has
always held a special place in her repertory and in her heart, as have
German lieder, Scandinavian and Spanish songs (not to mention jazz
and blues); her musical world has no limits.
For this new recording made in 2016, the Swedish soprano pays
homage both to her singing teacher and mentor, the great American
mezzo-soprano Jennie Tourel, and to the creative genius of Hector
Berlioz. If the Nuits dâ??été have long formed part of her repertory, the
two cantatas Herminie and Cléopâtre are new. - .. NUITS D'ETE, CLEOPATREThroughout her fifty year career Barbara Hendricks has shown herself to be one of the greatest champions of French song.
