Review by Alfredo Ibáñez

Britten Songs by Benjamin Britten Ian Bostridge is a stunning album that showcases the vocal prowess of the renowned tenor. The album features a collection of songs by the celebrated British composer, Benjamin Britten, and is masterfully interpreted by Bostridge.

The album is a true delight for classical music lovers, as it presents a range of emotions and moods through its tracks. Bostridge's voice is rich and expressive, and he brings a unique depth and sensitivity to each song. The listener is taken on a journey through the different stages of life, from the innocence of childhood to the complexities of adulthood, all through the lens of Britten's music.

The album is well-produced, with each song given the space and attention it deserves. Bostridge's performance is complemented by the accompaniment of pianist Julius Drake, who provides a sensitive and nuanced backdrop to the vocals.

About Benjamin Britten Ian Bostridge

British composer, conductor, and pianist. Born: November 22, 1913, in Lowestoft, UK - died: December 04, 1976, in Aldeburgh, UK. He showed talent from an early age, and first came to public attention with the a cappella choral work A Boy Was Born in 1934. With the premiere of his opera Peter Grimes in 1945, he leapt to international fame. For the next fifteen years he devoted much of his compositional attention to writing operas, establishing him as one of the leading 20th century figures in this genre. Britten's interests as a composer were wide-ranging; he produced important music in such varied genres as orchestral, choral, solo vocal (much of it written for the tenor Peter Pears), chamber and instrumental, as well as film music. He also took a great interest in writing music for children and amateur performers, and was a fine pianist and conductor. One of Britten's most important works, The War Requiem was completed 20 December 1961, and first performed 30 May 1962. Britten received many prizes and honors, including becoming a Companion of Honour in 1952, and a member of the Order of Merit in 1965.
