Description:
Lowell Liebermann illuminates the imagery and ethos of Anthony Hechts poetry with subtle imagination and powerful emotional force in these sharply contrasting songs for baritone and piano. The Darkness and the Light Are Both Alike to Thee is a luminous musical trance reminiscent of the impressionists, while Tarantula, or The Dance of Death drives without tiring, requiring the utmost strength and skill from both performers to achieve is bold and haunting evocations. Performable individually or as a pair, these songs make a dramatic and impressive addition to any recital.
