A live concert featuring Barbara Patton, soprano, and Natalie Limonick, piano, performing songs by Peter Cornelius, Hugo Wolf, Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss, and others. While it is not absolutely certain this appears to be a concert of art songs held in March of 1966. Regardless of the exact date, the selection of songs is delightful as are the performances by Patton and Limonick. Any aficionado of 19th century German art songs is sure to enjoy this program. |
