| What's New June 7, 2007 Deutsche Grammophon has announced that Measha Brueggergosman recently recorded her DG debut album Surprise (CD 477 6589 – scheduled for US release in autumn 2007, international release in early 2008). Measha teamed up with David Robertson and the BBC
Symphony Orchestra in London to record newly orchestrated songs by Grammy®-
and Pulitzer prize-winning composer William Bolcom – all world-premiere
recordings – as well as Schoenberg’s Brettl Lieder and songs by Satie. “She
is a versatile performer who is on the one hand able to do something of
great seriousness, and she also can do the Schoenberg cabaret songs and the
Satie with great style”, raved Bolcom, who accompanied Measha for some of
his repertoire. “I imagine the only difficulty she will ever have will be
for people to try to pin her down. She is very hard to pin down – she can do
all things.” |
