Two renowned tenor greats go on a special discovery:

Rene Kollo and Jay Alexander sing evening songs by

Schubert, Brahms, Mendelssohn and Schumann. The

well-known songs from the Romantic era have all

been newly arranged for string orchestra and

produced in the studio for the first time in this form.

The unique album, which will be released on February

11, 2022, combines two renowned voices that

complement each other exquisitely in their diversity.

The two singers can be heard in duet and solo,

creating a whole new listening experience of these

songs.

Both tenors have sung an enormous range of

repertoire. Rene Kollo is not only one of the most

legendary Wagner tenors of the 20th century, he also

opens himself to the so-called lighter muse.

"Romantic Evening Songs, " recorded with the Central

German Chamber Orchestra, delights with songs such

as Schubert's "I'm Abendrot, " "An den Mond, "

Mendelssohn's "Nachtlied" and "Der Mond, " as well

as Schumann's "Mondnacht" and Brahms'

"Wiegenlied."

For Jay Alexander, the collaboration with the

orchestra was particularly intense: "You are able to

immerse yourself in these songs in a completely

different way and embed your voice; it was a

beautiful atmosphere. The orchestra interpreted in

such a differentiated and sensitive way - you could

feel that the musicians also put their heart and soul

into it." The result is an album with music that

resembles a dreamlike walk on a starry night
