Alexander Hawkins Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I need to give it another listen...it didn't all 'wow' me, but by the same token, I thought some of it was very beautiful (I was also listening as much to the pieces as the performances in a sense, because most of these songs were new to me).

(IMO) this is by no means an uninspired performance, but although Kozena sings in her mother language (actually the same as mine ....) her delivery is somehow bland and the emotion - being integral part of this compositions - is largely missing .... likely her strenghts are not with songs aka "Lieder" .... P.S For the real stuff try this one ....: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
