Korngold Letter Aria from Die Kathrin

Korngold's Letter Aria from Die Kathrin, sung by Carolyn Whitaker on January 4 2009 at Tempe Center for the Arts with the MusicaNova Orchestra conducted by Warren Cohen. Die Kathrin was the last of Korngold's operas, and as far as I can tell, has only been staged twice. After the massive complexity of Das Wunder der Heliane, Korngold worked on a number of projects that involved much simpler sounds and textures. Die Kathrin is really a simple love story, although the plot itself became somewhat distorted by Korngold's attempts to make it more politically palatable in the Austria of the late 1930's. It has some beautiful music, and there are a number of set pieces that would make great additions to concert programs, including this aria. MusicaNova Orchestra has as its mission the performance of unjustly neglected music. Find out more at MusicaNovaaz.com
