This graduate recital in voice presents a wide scope of the soprano recital repertoire and explores the relationship between music and literature throughout the centuries. Mozart���s ���Bella mia fiamma��� Resta, o cara,��� K. 528 represents the Italian Classical period; the text is based on the Roman myth of the goddess Ceres. Strauss��� Drei Lieder der Ophelia, Op. 67 represents German Lieder from the late-Romantic period; the set presents a German translation of Ophelia���s mad scene from Shakespeare���s Hamlet. Argento���s Six Elizabethan Songs represent 20th-century music, but Argento draws the text from various poets of the Elizabethan era. Selected songs by Franz Liszt are representative of the French m��lodie from the Romantic period; they set the text of the Romantic poet Victor Hugo. Rachmaninoff���s Six Songs, Op. 38 represent the post-Romantic (nearly Impressionist) period and explore Russian Symbolist poetry. / Mary Pappert School of Music / Music Performance / MM; / Recital;
