Secret Nights – as this title already suggests, many a hidden ‘mystery’ of the concert repertoire will be uncovered on this new chamber music recording. Within the oeuvre of many famous composers, lieder (or songs) have been banned to a niche existence, even when they were plentiful.
The sibling duo Sonja and Astrid Leutwyler (mezzo soprano and violin) and pianist Benjamin Engeli present their discoveries for their unusual instrumentation of vocals, violin, and piano. Cellist Benjamin Nyffenegger is a wonderful addition to the trio, and he joins in on the songs by Amy Beach and the piece «At Nighttime» by Arash Safaian.
On the album Secret Night, well-known works are contrasted with rarities inspired by the mysteries inherent in night and nature.
