Hera Hyesang Park, Jochen Rieder, Orchestra del Teatro Carlo Felice - Breathe (2024)

Hera Hyesang Park releases her second Deutsche Grammophon album, that focuses on spiritual, meditative arias and songs. Breathe reflects the soprano’s determination to embrace life, let go of grief and approach every day with gratitude. This personal approach led to a choice of music containing classics by Rossini, Verdi, Massenet and more, besides recent works by contemporary composers.
