CD reviews

… A CD that just has to be heard! The Duo :nota bene: is joined by Detlef Mielke (cello) and Maximilian Kiener (tenor) for a tasteful selection from Haydn's 429 Scots, Welsh and Irish folk-songs. Kiener is obviously in his element interpreting the texts in a dialogue with the instrumentalists.
The Duo emphasises how seriously Haydn's folk-song arrangements are to be taken, by placing Beethoven's G major sonata for violin and piano op 96 in the middle of this anthology of folk/art-songs.
