Raff - Lieder

The present release features a selection of Lieder by composer Joachim Raff. "Despite the abundance and the high quality of Joachim Raff's songs, this part of his composition is little known and documented - in contrast to his instrumental works, which are recorded several times. Raff's songwriting is still hardly a subject of music-historical research. We very much hope and wish that this recording, which consists exclusively of premieres, can interest somebody in Raff's songs - so that we more often can find them in concerts!" (Hedayet Jonas Djeddikar & Johannes Wedeking)
