Hugo Wolf - The Anniversary Edition

EMI Classics celebrates the 150th Anniversary of the famed
Austrian composer Hugo Wolf with the release of this 8-CD
box set. This exclusive box set contains some of Hugo Wolf s
most notable works including his collections of MÃ¶rike-Lieder
and Eichendorff Leider.
Great singers have long been associated with the name of
Hugo Wolf; before World War II Walter Legge was the
inspiration behind the Hugo Wolf Society edition which
still remains a benchmark for the performance of Lieder. His
wife, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau
have long been icons in the performance of Lieder and those
of Wolf in particular. In this collection they are joined by
singers of the present generation Thomas Allen, Olaf BÃ¤r,
Ian Bostridge, Dawn Upshaw, Anne Sofie von Otter,
Helen Donath, Brigitte Fassbaender and Monika
Frimmer all who have been drawn to his great collection of
songs; accompanists too, notably. Gerald Moore, Geoffrey
Parsons, Helmut Deutsch and Antonio Pappano have
been instrumental in ensuring that the music of Hugo Wolf
continues to grace the halls where great Lieder are still
performed.
