Our Take

Magdalena Kožená's latest album, Love and Longing, is a delightful journey through the highs and lows of the human experience. The Czech mezzo-soprano's voice is like a warm embrace, wrapping you up in a cocoon of emotion and vulnerability.

From the haunting opening track, "Lascia ch'io pianga," to the triumphant finale of "Porgi amor," Kožená's range and control are on full display. Her operatic training shines through on every note, with each phrase feeling like a carefully crafted masterpiece.

The arrangements on Love and Longing are lush and rich, with layers of strings and woodwinds weaving in and out of each other. The album is a testament to Kožená's impeccable taste and artistry, as she effortlessly navigates the complexities of each piece.

Standout tracks include the haunting "Ombra mai fu" and the heartbreaking "Dido's Lament," both of which showcase Kožená's ability to convey deep emotion with subtlety and grace.

Overall, Love and Longing is a stunning showcase of Magdalena Kožená's talent and mastery of her craft. It's an album that will linger with you long after the final note has faded away, a testament to the power of music to touch the soul.
