Carl Maria von Weber (1786‐1826) holds his place in music history as the founder of the German Romantic Opera, embracing German culture of folk song and a strong feeling of nature. His influence was enormous, he was an inspiration for many composers, notably Richard Wagner.
This new recording presents Weber’s complete songs for voice and guitar. Weber played the guitar himself, he was in contact with famous guitarists of his day, like Mauro Giuliani, and he often sang his own songs in the fashionable salons, accompanying himself on the guitar. The songs are utterly charming, lyrical and dramatic, on a par with Beethoven’s “An die ferne Geliebte” and early Schubert songs. The guitar freely and independently interacts with the melodic lines, never being a mere accompaniment.
Beautifully sung by Patricia Cigna, well known opera singer who collaborated with conductors like Gatti, Koopman, Fasolis and Jurowski, guitarist is Adriano Sebastiani, who already successfully recorded similar repertoire by Dowland and Spohr.
