Cool!

Is this the "type" of thing she does, if not exactly regularly, at least on occasion? With her dancing/ballet background, it seems like it might be a natural enough fit?

I have to confess, I don't really know much about her: but yes, I think the dance background would help identify with this piece (original commission was from Ida Rubinstein I think), and also the stage experience. And it certainly does feel natural here. I can imagine her sounding great in something like Stravinsky's Persephone too (a part Rubinstein did in the original performance, I think).

Great recording....

 

Seems that way! It's new to me; I picked it up after hearing a fantastic version on the radio from Symphony Hall, Birmingham, the other week.

LOVE Annie Fischer's Beethoven. She pretty much owns op.109!!!
