Jessye Norman Sings the Songs of Alban Berg (Repost)

Alban Berg: Seven Early Songs, Altenberg Songs, Youthful Songs (1995)
Classical | EAC (APE, CUE & NO LOG) | 166 MB

Who's afraid of Alban Berg?
The fact that it's Jessye Norman who performs these songs is not the only reason why I think this is a great record. I think this record gives you a great view on the evolution of Alban Berg as a composer. The three different sets of songs belong to a different period in his life: the early songs are still truely romantic, the "Seven early songs" show a composer searching for new ways of expression and the Altenberg-lieder show him using a totally new and different soundscape. I think Jessye Norman is the perfect singer for these songs. The early 20th century repertoire suits her perfectly.

I should like to rephrase that salient question to "Who's afraid of Pasha?" since this post is dedicated to our most beloved patron saint who wields complete power to either save or kill our posts. No one could dare to earn such a prestigious distinction―at least not around this dingy hole. Everyone, give it up for the one and only Pasha13!
