Notes & Reviews:

After only a few years, Janina Baechle has become one of the great mezzo-sopranos of our time. Her debut album as a recitalist documents a song selection both exclusive and unexpected, yet overtly charming. Baechle's intonation is as soulful as it is precise, ravishingly melting with these rarely-heard jewels born out of art nouveau and symbolism.
