Medtner: Sleeplessness, Complete Songs, Vol. 2 by Ekaterina Levental, Frank Peters - DeepRiffs

ALBUM

Fast könnte man von einem nachromantischen Randrepertoire sprechen, stünden die Lieder von Nikolai Medtner (1880-1951) stilistisch nicht so einzigartig da. Auch wenn die vier Opera (von 1915 bis 1924) dieser zweiten Folge einer Gesamteinspielung keine neuen Wege gehen, so denken sie doch in ihrer Ausdrucksintensität die große Tradition weiter, vor allem durch einen sehr fülligen, eigenständig kommentierenden Klavierpart. Aufnahmetechnisch vom Klavier unnötig „überflügelt“, trifft Ekaterina Levental mit ihrem facettenreichen Mezzo dennoch das breite Farbspektrum der Gesänge ideal.
