About

Brazilian composer Alberto Nepomuceno (1864-1920) is considered to be the founder of Brazilian art song. His works displays influences of German Lied, French Mélodie, and stylistic elements from his native country. He produced the most important body of Brazilian art songs, perhaps to this day. Featured on this album are nine of his non-Portuguese songs, five of which are world-premiere recordings. Also included are songs by his European contemporaries Ernest Chausson, Edvard Grieg, and Richard Strauss.

A debut on Music & Arts, mezzo-soprano Kindra Scharich has been praised by The San Francisco Chronicle for her “exuberant vitality, fearless technical precision, deep-rooted pathos and irrepressible musical splendor.” Her 2018 recording with the Alexander String Quartet In meinem Himmel: The Complete Mahler Song Cycles (Foghorn Classics) was praised by Opera News as “An album of extraordinary and complete musical and poetical accomplishment.” Her 2020 recording To my Distant Beloved: Songs of Beethoven & Schumann, with pianist Jeffrey LaDeur (MSR) was acclaimed by San Francisco Classical Voice as “A truly remarkable feat of musical and dramatic transformation.”

Brazilian pianist Ricardo Ballestero is a tireless champion of vocal and instrumental chamber music of Brazil. He is an Associate Professor in the Music Department of the Universidade de São Paulo.
