W/ Carole Farley, William Bolcom |
| | Description: | The American composer William Bolcom (b. 1938) is best-known for his large-scale setting of William Blake's "Songs of Innocence and Experience," which is available on a 3-CD Naxos set. This new collection of Bolcom's songs also on Naxos shows the composers's lifelong fascination with Blake. It includes an early lyrical setting of Blake's poem, "Mary" which deals with a beautiful and intelligent young woman and her rejection by her society. In the several torch and cabaret-style works it includes, the collection also shows Bolcom's attempts to fuse classical with popular styles of music. Bolcom also has done so in his piano music, much of which is heavily influenced by ragtime. The songs on this CD are performed and selected by soprano Carole Farley with Bolcom himself at the piano.The CD "Lieder" by Carole Farley and William Bolcom, released by Naxos, presents a captivating collection of art songs that highlight the expressive range and emotional depth of both performers. Soprano Carole Farley is renowned for her interpretations of contemporary and classical repertoire, bringing dramatic intensity and nuance to every performance. Accompanied by acclaimed composer-pianist William Bolcom?winner of multiple Grammy Awards and a Pulitzer Prize?the duo explores an evocative selection that spans various styles and eras within the lieder tradition. This recording not only showcases their exceptional artistry but also offers listeners an immersive journey through poetic storytelling set to music.
