This first recording of lieder by soprano Sarah Traubel, with pianist Helmut Deutsch, is no less than a declaration of love for the genre. Four of Mahler's Rückert-Lieder and the Four Last Songs by Richard Strauss are showcased here, and pieces by Franz Liszt and Korngold ideally complete a fine panorama of postromantic lieder, with the intimacy of which Sarah Traubel proves to be perfectly in her element.
