Efa Hoffmann, Edward Rushdon, - Waldeinsamkeit: Schumann: Liedkreis Op. 39/ Brahms: Liedersa

Robert Schumann�s Liederkreis is among the most romantic creations ever produced by romantic music. On her CD debut Efa Hoffmann brings together the Liederkreis and a selection of folk songs by Johannes Brahms in a multifacetedexploration of the program�s unifying theme of Waldeinsamkeit: the solitude of the woods.A generation later Johannes Brahms followed another path. His �folk songs� capture the folk tone with gripping simplicity.A wonderfully contemplative recording to soothe the soul from two romantic composers paired together on this disc.
