About this Recording
This collection of song cycles and piano music by American composer Gwyneth Walker contains settings of poetry by E. E. Cummings, May Swenson, and the Sufi mystic, Rumi.
Michelle Areyzaga has been praised for her ravishing soprano in opera and song and Jamie Shaak’s piano artistry has been heard at the Kennedy Center and at Lincoln Center in New York.
This recording is a labor of love, as these two peerless artists team up to introduce a wider audience to the music of one of America’s most gifted composers.
Already well known for her choral settings, Gwyneth Walker here breaks new ground in these sensitive and lavish renderings for soprano and piano. The quality of Ms. Walker’s piano music is further highlighted in two original and fascinating piano solos.
