Free Music Review: Another Visit to Heaven
Hit: 5 Stars
I first encountered Lorraine Hunt Lieberson at the San Francisco Symphony's performance of Mahler's 2nd, in which her aria stopped time. I found myself quietly weeping, and looking around, I was not alone with teary eyes. The recording of that symphony night does not have the same effect, though it is still wonderful. But on this CD, when I listened to her sing these poetic Spanish songs put to music by her husband, again I am moved to the depths of my very being. Her death was a tragic loss but her sublime vocal powers are preserved here for us to experience. Excellent musical composition, profound poetry, great orchestral performance, heavenly singing: this is musical art at the highest level.
