Folk Songs / Kožená, Rattle, Czech Philharmonic
Magdalena Kožená’s fourth Pentatone album Folk Songs brings together folk-inspired song cycles from across the globe. Ranging from Berio’s Folk Songs to sets by Bartók, Ravel and Montsalvatge, this collection provides a kaleidoscope of twentieth-century orchestral song composition. Kožená performs them together with the Czech Philharmonic under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle.
REVIEW:
Kožená is on gleaming form in music that largely suits her voice well, and the orchestra plays fabulously for Rattle.
