Our Take

Thomas Hampson and the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra have teamed up with a whole ensemble of talented performers - including the Wiener Jeunesse-Chor, Gumpoldskirchner Spatzen, and more - to bring us an unforgettable rendition of Kurt Weill's "Propheten" and "Four Walt Whitman Songs."

From the moment the opening notes hit your ears, you know you're in for a wild ride. The orchestra's dynamic range paired with Hampson's velvety baritone will have you feeling things you never knew were possible. It's like the musical equivalent of a rollercoaster ride - thrilling, unpredictable, and always leaving you wanting more.

The choral performances are absolutely stunning, adding layers of depth and emotion to each piece. The harmonies are so tight, they could rival a well-tailored suit. And let's not forget about the soloists - Albert Dohmen, Kurt Azesberger, Michael Papst, and the rest of the crew - who deliver standout performances that will give you chills.

Under the baton of the legendary Dennis Russell Davies, this album is an absolute masterpiece. It's a love letter to the music of Kurt Weill, written in the language of passion and precision. So grab a glass of your finest wine, sit back, and let the music wash over you. Trust me, you won't regret it.
