Notes & Reviews:

Capriccio presents the first complete recording of songs for voice and piano by Arnold Schoenburg. This 4 CD set includes pieces such as Gurre-Lieder, Fifteen poems from "The book of the hanging gardens" and Brettl-Lieder. Featured artists are sopranos Claudia Barainsky and Melanie Diener.

The Guardian, July 2012
The performances throughout the set, all of them accompanied by pianist Urs Liska, vary from the thoroughly effective to the very fine indeed, with the baritone Konrad Jarnot particularly impressive. ..But it's the sheer comprehensiveness of this set that makes it so fascinating; many of the songs in it would be hard to source elsewhere.

American Record Guide, January/February 2013
This set collects all the songs with piano and includes many first recordings. Aside from its obvious usefulness as a reference (where else could you find Op. 15 and the Cabaret songs in one place?), the performances are first rate: four singers divide the works between them, all accompanied expertly and musically by pianist Liska. The booklet contains only the German texts with no translations, as well as a fine essay (in English and German) on the songs generally. Capriccio's sound is excellent. A must have.

International Record Review, February 2013
[Jarnot's] warmly mellifluous baritone is finely deployed in a group of nine posthumous songs...Barainsky effortlessly conveys the insinuating charms of Colly's 'Jedem das Seine' and Frank Wedekind's 'Galathea'...A release which is mandatory listening for anyone who wishes to assess Schoenberg's place within the Lieder tradition.
