Diaphenia – English Love Songs from three centuries • Marie Luise Werneburg, Elisabeth Champollion, Frauke Hess, Michael Freimuth, Cristian Peix • Pre-order now: https://vkjk.de • This album will be released on April 23, 2019. • Music in this video: William Denis Browne – Diaphenia • The preparation for this album has taken the soprano Marie Luise Werneburg on a journey of exploration and research between the 17th and 20th centuries – and even inspired her to the commission two new songs from a leading British composer of the 21st century. • The Dresden-born early music specialist was casually leafing through a friend’s copy of lute songs by the English composer Francis Pilkington (c. 1565 – 1638) when she made an unexpected discovery. “I turned the page and there I saw ‘Diaphenia’ and thought: I know that!” By chance she was already familiar with Dominick Argento’s 1957 setting of the same poem (one of the American composer’s Six Elizabethan Songs) and was immediately struck by the existence of a setting composed some 370 years earlier. This discovery gave birth to the idea to develop a programme which combines old and newer settings of the same poems. • And ‘Diaphenia’s mood itself set the main criterion for what other songs should be included in the programme: they should only feature optimistic love, as yet unclouded by doubt. There was a lot of scouring facsimiles and songbooks to find suitable repertoire, and the programme grew to represent two golden ages of English song that exist in a kind of dialogue across the centuries. The 17th-century lute songs by Thomas Morley, Pilkington and Corkine, Thomas Ford, Nicholas Lanier – as well as anonymous hands – are interspersed with songs by those composers who were inspired by the rediscovery of renaissance music. • In addition, there are two 17th century poems that existed in early songs for which Werneburg was unable to find modern equivalents. So she commissioned 21th-century settings from London-born composer Joby Talbot which were written especially for this project and therefore are recorded on this CD for the very first time. • • Marie Luise Werneburg • Website: http://www.marieluisewerneburg.de/ • Facebook: / marie-luise-werneburg-sopranistin-20139091... • More tracks by querstand – the classical label of Kamprad Publishing Group are available in this Playlist: • querstand I Die Welt der Musik • Get more information about Kamprad Publishing Group: • Website: http://vkjk.de • Facebook: / verlagsgruppe.kamprad
