Lorraine Hunt Lieberson - Bach Cantatas BWV 82 and 199
Johann Sebastian Bach, Craig Smith, ...

Nonesuch, 2003

Lorraine Hunt Lieberson - Bach Cantats BMW82 and 199
If you love Hunt Lieberson, this CD is a must-have. Beautiful articulation, awesome voice, heart-felt emotion to tear your heart out, all with the best technique.
  
  











  



  
John Adams - El Nino / Hunt-Lieberson, Upshaw, W. White, Nagano
Willard White, John Adams, ...

Nonesuch, 2001

An American Masterpiece
John Adams' modern Nativity oratorio is not only the best thing he's written since "Nixon in China," it may be the best thing he's written. Filled with his usual driving rhythms and supple vocal lines, as well as more unusual features like a trio of countertenor ...
  
  











  



  
Lorraine Hunt - Handel Arias
George Frideric Handel, Nicholas McGegan, ...

Harmonia Mundi, 1994

An Ode to Beauty and Artistry (Lorraine Hunt-Lieberson, 1954-2006)
I've been meaning to review this album for the longest time, but haven't because of my committments at work and other things. Lieberson's voice, in my opinion, is one of the most beautiful instruments of our generation. It is, unlike a certain Renaaay who tries to ...
  
  











  



  
Songs by Mahler, Handel & Peter Lieberson
Johannes Brahms, George Frederick Handel, ...

Wigmore Hall Live, 2007

how do you even begin to comment on this singer?
I am fortunate to work in an office with walls and a door, where I can actually play music without disturbing anyone. Lately, because work has been particularly stressful, I've been playing and replaying my Hunt Lieberson CD's. Sometimes I am forced to just stop what ...
  
  











  



  
Brahms: 8 Lieder
Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, Brahms, ...

WIGMORE HALL LIVE, 2008

Incomparable lieder singing by any measure
In the generation of Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, only Jessye Norman and Thomas Hampson among other Americans could claim to be masterful in singing German lieder, and in many ways she leaves them far behind -- neither was as natural as she is, as unaffected in their ...
  
  











  



  
Lorraine at Emmanuel
Orch. of Emmanuel Music, Lorraine Hunt Lieberson

Avie, 2008

Their Artistry Is Their Legacy
As a Boston resident from 1985-1994, I attended numerous Emmanuel Music events ranging from the Sellars production of Handel's "Giulio Cesare" (brought to Boston by Sarah Caldwell & the Opera Company of Boston) to several of the weekly Bach Cantatas that they performed ...
  
  











  



  
Lorraine Hunt Lieberson sings Peter Lieberson 'Neruda Songs'
Peter Lieberson, James Levine, ...

Trumpet Swan, 2006

A personal comment about its length
I had the good fortune to be at the performance at Boston Symphony Hall in November 2005 when this CD was recorded. The emotional effect was so intense for both my wife and myself that we did not stay for the rest of the concert--a Mahler symphony no less. Any ...
  
  











  



  
Lorraine Hunt Lieberson - Handel Arias
George Frideric Handel, Harry Bicket, ...

Avie, 2004

A wonderful voice, too soon taken from us
Lorraine Hunt Lieberson was a wonderfully talented mezzo soprano, who dies far too soon. To begin, I can only quote from another reviewer: "And how sad it is to know that this instrument has passed away two days ago [in 2006]. Lorraine Hunt-Lieberson died two days ago ...
  
  











  



  
Handel - Theodora / Peter Sellars · William Christie · Upshaw, Hunt, Daniels, Croft · Glyndebourne Opera
William Christie, David Daniels

Kultur Video, 2004

Exquisite Lorraine Hunt Lieberson
The oratorio Theodora would be interesting containing as it does some of the Handel's most fabulous arias. With Lorraine Hunt Lieberson playing Irene, the DVD is on another level. She is just perfection, the emotion and artistry of her performance is beyond words- a ...
  
  











  



  
Mahler: Symphony 2
Gustav Mahler, Isabel Bayrakdarian, ...

San Francisco Sym, 2004

Absolutely Thrilling
Michael Tilson Thomas's fifth Mahler recording with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra in his series of the complete Mahler symphonies is just as wonderful and exciting as any Mahler performance can be. The second, commonly called the Resurrection Symphony, is the ...
  
  











  



  
Bach - Anna Magdalena Bach Notebook (highlights) / Hunt-Liberson, McGegan
Johann Sebastian Bach, C.P.E. Bach, ...

Harmonia Mundi Classical Express, 2001

Anna Magdalena Notebook-- a treasure trove of Baroque music
This is music for contemplating number and time and not realize you are doing that. These pieces from Anna Magdalena Bach's notebook are a significant part of the history of western culture, and the music is brilliant, lucid, and passionate. Just as, I suppose, Bach's ...
  
  











  



  
Music of Peter Lieberson (Rilke Songs, The Six Realms, Horn Concerto)
Peter Lieberson, Justin Brown, ...

Bridge Records, Inc., 2006

Knowing the story behind the music - smiles and tears
When Peter Lieberson married the love of his life (Lorraine Hunt), he had no idea she would only be alive for the next 8 years. As a composer, Peter vividly expresses his passion. One can actually feel their extraordinary "oneness" through Lorraine's UNBELIEVABLE ...
  
  











  



  
Purcell - The Fairy Queen / Hunt, Pierard, Bickley, Crook, Padmore, Wilson-Johnson, Wistreich, Schütz Choir, ...
Henry Purcell, Roger Norrington, ...

Virgin Veritas, 2002

If you like Monteverdi, you will love Purcell
Absolutely beautifull baroque opera! The arrangament, singing and instrumentation is superb. If you liked Monteverdi's Coronation of Poppea, it is a must to have this baroque masterpiece! It is too bad that Henry Purcell is not as widely known as Bach, because he ...
  
  











  



  
Charpentier - Médée / Hunt, Padmore, Deletre, Zanetti, Salzmann, Les Arts Florissants, Christie
Marc-Antoine Charpentier, William Christie, ...

Erato, 1995

The power of music and classical drama!
I was fortunate to listen to this production, performed in Lisbon in 1994, and I will never forget Lorraine Hunt on her black long dress, calling the spirits of the underwold in the third act... it was a magical moment, something I have no words to express. The ...
  
  











  



  
Mozart - Don Giovanni
Herbert Perry, Eugene Perry

Decca, 2005

The twins are still singing, and well.
I recently ordered Peter Sellars' "Don Giovanni" starring Herbert and Eugene Perry as the Don and Leporello, or was it Leporello and the Don? Since the brothers are identical twinc and would change roles from time to time just to keep from getting in a rut, I had ...
