Including three specially commissioned pieces, she has selected, with pianist Joseph Middleton, a wonderful programme that combines a selection from the much-loved Hugo Wolf Italian Songbook and Strauss’ Ophelia Lieder with Poulenc’s rarely-heard set Fiancailles pour rire and Koechlin’s Sept chansons pour Gladys. Similarly, the English songs include Maconchy’s ever-popular – but hardly recorded – Ophelia’s Song, together with four wonderful songs by Muriel Herbert and the three new commissions by Rhian Samuel and Cheryl Francis-Hoad. This is a fantastic introduction to a rising-star soprano, giving exquisite performances of some enchanting repertoire. • Drei Lieder der Ophelia (Strauss) • Fiancailles pour rires (Poulenc) • Sept chansons pour Gladys (Koechlin) • Italienisches Liederbuch – selection (Wolf) • To Daffodils (Herbert) • The Lost Nightingale (Herbert) • Renouncement (Herbert) • Cradle Song (Herbert) • Ophelia’s Song (Maconchy) • The Gaze (Samuel) • Two Shakespeare Songs (Frances-Hoad) Sample track – Ophelia’s Song (Maconchy)
