NERUDA SONGS

Boston Symphony Orchestra

Lorraine Hunt Lieberson Sings Peter Lieberson: Neruda Songs

Boston Symphony Orchestra, James Levine, director

Credits: Assistant Engineer 


Hunt Lieberson invests the songs with heartbreaking tenderness and strength and an almost reckless emotional urgency and vulnerability and transparency. Her voice is warm and powerful, radiant from the bottom of her range to the top, and she soars on the expressive lines Lieberson gives her. In this live recording, James Levine’s leadership of the Boston Symphony treats the orchestra as a sensitive and fully engaged partner in conveying the drama and poignancy of the cycle.

Awards: Grammy Award in 2008 for Best Classical Vocal Recording
