Chamber music from Glasgow's RSNO Centre (3/4)
Scottish mezzo-soprano Karen Cargill joins pianist Simon Lepper for a recital of music by Debussy, Chausson, Wagner and Jongen.
Recorded at the RSNO centre in February 2020 in front of a live audience, Scottish mezzo-soprano Karen Cargill joined pianist Simon Lepper for a recital of French music, including songs by Debussy and Chausson. Wagner鈥檚 five Wesendonck Lieder are also included, settings of poetry by Mathilde Wesendonck, filled with emotional despair and moments of triumph. Wagner wrote to Mathilde that 鈥業 have not written anything better than these songs and very few of my works will be remembered besides them鈥�. RSNO string principals joined for the final works in this concert, Belgian composer Joseph Jongen鈥檚 鈥楥alm beside the silent quays鈥� and Chausson鈥檚 final completed work 鈥楥hanson Perpetuelle鈥� describing the suffering of an abandoned woman.
