Renée Fleming, the world’s preeminent lyric soprano, is joined by Christian Thielemann, internationally acclaimed for his performances of Strauss works, for this recording of the exquisitely beautiful Four Last Songs. In addition, Fleming performs a selection of lieder with orchestra as well as arias from Ariadne auf Naxos and Die ägyptische Helena.
“With her silken tones, stunning technique, vocal intelligence and regal presence, Fleming remains a class apart, the definitive Strauss interpreter of our time.”—Chicago Sun-Times
