Strauss: Tag und Nacht

Bamberger Symphoniker, Hrusa, Jakub, Kněžíková, Kateřina

SU 4346-2

Soprano Kateřina Kněžíková is a star both in today’s world of opera and on concert stages (BBC SO, Bamberger Symphoniker, Czech Philharmonic, LPO, Mahler Chamber Orchestra, RLPO etc.).

Following her album Phidylé, which attracted a wave of positive attention from critics worldwide (Gramophone Editor’s Choice, BBC Music Magazine Award), she has let herself be carried away by the world of Richard Strauss’s songs, a world full of micro-dramas, transparent emotions, and depth of intimacy.

Along with the conductor Jakub Hrůša and the Bamberger Symphoniker, she has recorded an album titled Tag und Nacht containing both Strauss’s orchestral songs and his intimate songs with piano.

Unusually, Jakub Hrůša himself is playing the piano accompaniments.
