Josephine Nendick was one of the greatest singers ever. It's a shame that they misspelt her name.

Absolutely the best performance of this great and hugely ignored piece I've ever heard. The accompanying biography/assesment, while sidestepping the. addiction and tortured drives that brought thiis artist to his premature end, is heartfelt and informative.

A very beautiful and moving work - I first heard it in the 1960s and it stands the test of time...

« Tout va, tout meurt. ... Tout dépositaire de la création doit l'accepter, comme il accepte sa propre mort. Même sur le plan technique, son art doit évoluer vers la mort, il doit s'achever dans l'« inachèvement sans cesse » - Jean Barraqué

Thanks very much for this. I wish you would upload a transfer of the recording of Chant apres chant from the same LP.

I did not know this composer, thanks ! It is a beautiful work, soprano voice, the same, and the video is succeeded, as always the ones you do. Thanks again :) Teona.

As Foucault’s partner, this piece is influenced by Nietzsche’s philosophy “Must we not hate ourselves if we are to love ourselves”
