Vocal / Jazz / Cabaret / Classical / Modern / Neo-Classical
This has to be one of my favorite CD's. Michael Nyman is normally thought of an advance Phillip Glass like Movie Theme composer, "The Piano" being his most famous piece, but with this CD he joins forces with Ute Lemper a multi-language singer of Cabaret & Jazz ballads.
There are 4 main compositions in this "Songbook" with poems or lyrics by:
1. Six Celan Songs by Paul Celan
This section contains Jewish Holocaust poems from World War 2 German Concentration Camps which reveal the Jew's plight & questioning the "No Name" God of their Faith. This is a very moving musical piece about the extremes of existence. Sung in German
2. Ariel Songs from Shakespeare
This section contains poems from William Shakespeare. Sung in English
3. I Am An Unusual Thing by Mozart Trans. Maynard Solomon
Sung in English
4. L'Orgie Parisienne from Rimbaud
This section contains poems from Arthur Rimbaud about the decadence of Paris. Sung in French
