Notturno - Songs by Richard Strauss

This year marks what would be the 150th birthday of the iconic composer, Richard Strauss, and to pay tribute, Deutsche Grammophon releases Notturno, songs by Richard Strauss performed by American baritone Thomas Hampson. Widely recognized as one of the premiere interpreters of German art song today, Hampson celebrates Strauss' 150th anniversary with several concerts in Europe and North America, along with a new production of the composer's Arabella which took place in April at the Salzburg Easter Festival. 

Adding to an already considerable discography and videography for Deutsche Grammophon, the newly released Notturno highlights Hampson's incredible talents with an expertly-crafted collection of Lieder by Richard Strauss which also includes guest artist Daniel Hope. Hampson stated, "Richard Strauss' songs provide each of us havens of contemplations as we travel our own paths and discover our own ‘stories'".
