Hahn is on.by Anonymous

Customer Rating:

September 27, 2010: This is a fabulous collection of some beautiful Hahn songs. Hahn songs have gone into art song oscurity--all except for his two big hits "L'heure exquise" and "Si mes avaient des ailes" (written when Hahn was only 13yo). These songs are refreshingly simplistic and exquisite. In addition to delight melodies, Susan Graham's sumptuous voice makes this CD a must have in your collective. Her interpretation as well the collaborative efforts of Roger Vignoles is wonderfully breaktaking without impeding on the charm of Hahn. Buy it.

Graham's Beautiful Mezzo Singing Beautiful Song!by Anonymous

September 27, 2010: Reynaldo Hahn's songs are among the most beautiful of his era, French song of the "Belle Epoque" at its most moving! Susan Graham sings it with great sensitivity to both words and melody - great singing like this makes words and melody one, and involves the listener in the world of the song! And the final song she sings here is as beautiful a love song as can be heard, the lovely "Si mi vers avaient des ailes"! There are other wonderful recordings of it - the late Arleen Auger's, Vinson Cole - but this is superlative. I've given it as gifts to many friends, who thank me forever! Listen! Listen" Listen!.
