Franz Schubert - Three Songs for Orchestra and Soprano

0:14 I. Nacht und Träume, D 827 (Franz Schubert, orchestrated by Max Reger)

7:00 III. Gretchen am Spinnrade, D 118 (Franz Schubert,

The Lucerne Festival Orchestra with Claudio Abbado as its conductor made triumphal headlines worldwide: from «the miracle of Lucerne» (Tagesspiegel) to «superbe et éphèmère» (Le Figaro). When Abbado and his newly founded Orchestra perform at the Lucerne Festival 2005, the whole musical world looks again to Lucerne. The programme of this concert recording is exquisite: Alban Berg’s “Altenberg Lieder” with world star Renée Fleming is followed by a performance of Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No.7.

“I have rarely heard any soprano attach such colour and dynamic shape…” Die Welt
“Incomparably, a wonderful orchestra.” Neue Zürcher Zeitung
