The debut CD of pianist Friederike Sieber Seelenübervoll is featuring lieder from the late Romantic period and works by Alma Mahler, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Richard Strauss, and Alexander von Zemlinsky are performed. This production of five outstanding young singers resurrects the musical salon’s idea and gifts us a wealth of rarely performed songs. The turn of the century 1900 was a time “brimming” with sensation and an exuberant soul: the exceptional young performers enable us to feel extreme emotional states through their interpretations, which tell of an extraordinary and artistically fruitful epoch.

The Rheinpfalz.
"Highly recommended! [...] Five young voices that go to work with deep seriousness and each self-confident vocal noblesse and astonishingly mature approach. [...] Last not least, the Hamburg lied pianist Friederike Sieber, a keyboard artist of the younger generation, performs at the grand piano in a way that one could not wish for more eloquent, more cautious, more anticipatory."
