Shakespeare in Songs – Anne Sofie von Otter: Recital Various

Public

Recital

Approved

Much like Goethe in German or Verlaine in French, William Shakespeare embodies for the English language this inspiring muse that composers, whether English or not, have continually called upon over the past five centuries, undoubtedly because they deem his pen to be particularly musical – or “musicable” –, a tendency that, moreover, seems to be set to continue for the foreseeable future. A chameleon-artist with the perfect diction for emphasising each word in the most diverse languages, mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter offers here an ambitious demonstration of this, as she intends to wander right through the huge “catalogue” of musical settings of Shakespeare's works, from Thomas Morley to... Rufus Wainwright!
