Barbara Hannigan - Vienna, fin de siècle - BBC Music Magazine

Hannigan’s luminous voice perfectly suits this music. She conveys the uneasy, almost unhinged feel of the fin de siècle not only in her lyric singing, but also in her crooning, swopping, sliding, whispering and weeping. Reinbert de Leeuw matches her with his delicate touch, and his sense of layering in the carefully terraced accompaniments…’Frühlingstag’ is exquisitely, unforgettably beautiful.
