Strauss:
"Madchenblumen" Op. 22

Smyth:
"Three Moods of the Sea"

With this recording, the duo Yvonne Prentki and Benedikt ter Braak want to show that the composers Josephine Lang and Ethel Smyth can not only hold their own effortlessly alongside an established and frequently performed song cycle by Richard Strauss, but can also be classified in the great canon of song literature in terms of emotionality, quality and compositional accuracy.
