The Lover's Curse

Dalton Baldwin, Internationally Reknowned Pianist/Accompanist
One could not wish for a more beautiful rendition of Irish songs... The Lover's Curse is a MUST.

Product Description:
Seventeen traditional art songs of Ireland. In 1995, the gift of a book of Irish songs arranged by Herbert Hughes became the spark that set off this recording. The songs are beautiful, energetic, and full of Irish character. Each is unique, coming from musically distinct regions of Ireland. With their strong, touching lyrics and grand melodies, the songs are an open canvas for expression. These "traditional art songs" combine traditional words and melodies with fine accompaniments written by classical composers. Arranging Irish, English and Scottish folksongs has been popular for centuries among classical composers, including Haydn and Beethoven. The songs in this recording were arranged by composers who, at the turn of the 20th century, collected as many of the folksongs of the British Isles as they could find in an effort to preserve them.

Here's a chance to dial yourself back to Edwardian England to sample one of the most extraordinary singers of the 20th century. Clara Butt stood 6-foot-2 with a frame to match and a voice that easily spanned the range between a soprano's top notes and a baritone's low ones. An important singer, even if an acquired taste for many, Butt sang with a power that defied the primitive recording equipment of the time. However, Ward Marston has done an amazing job of sonic restoration, so even these acoustic recordings--made between 1909 and 1921--convey the quality of her singing. The repertory is representative of her concert programs: a nod to operatic and oratorio selections, classical songs, and a heavy dose of the folk songs and sentimental ballads that endeared her to audiences, helping to transform her into a national institution. These days, songs like "The little silver ring" and "Snowdrops" may have little intrinsic interest; yet Butt hasn't lost her own thanks to the quality of her vocalism, her one-in-a-million voice, mastery of legato singing, and the perfect diction that lets every word sound. She can take a narrative ballad like "Barbara Allen" and make it a gripping dramatic miniature, and she transforms the quasi-religious sentimentality of "Abide with Me" into something intense. --Dan Davis
