Morike Lieder (No: 25, Schlafendes Jesuskind)

Available for over a year

Wolf’s greatness lay in his ability to conjure an entire song from a single idea or suggestion. The dreams of a sleeping baby Jesus is the song’s subject, which Wolf musically illustrates with a luminous, simple and beautiful melody and accompaniment. Composer: Hugo Wolf Performer: Robin Tritschler (Tenor) Performer: James Baillieu (Piano) Recording date: 04 November 2012 Date of broadcast: 25 December 2012
