An immense painter, sculptor, architect, Michelangelo (1475-1564) wrote poetry expressing turmoil, restlessness, personal and professional anger, written in an energetic and passionate language. Both Dimitri Shostakovich and Benjamin Britten found inspiration in his texts, and by setting them to music they show their own feelings in a highly personal and characteristic way.- This new recording presents the \"7 Sonnets Op. 22\" by Benjamin Britten, and the Michelangelo Suite Op. 145 by Dimitri Shostakovich, both intensely expressive and dramatic, each in his own unique musical language. - Sung by Mark Milhofer and Mirco Palazzi, Marco Scolastra is their piano partner. Mark Milhofer's recording of the Folk Songs by Britten for Brilliant Classics received many excellent reviews, including a \"Recommended Recording of the Month\" on Musicweb.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Sonnets of Michelangelo Op. 22 for tenor and piano~Sonetto XVI: Sì come nella penna - Tempo giusto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Sonnets of Michelangelo Op. 22 for tenor and piano~Sonetto XXXI: A che più debb'io mai - Con moto appassionato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Sonnets of Michelangelo Op. 22 for tenor and piano~Sonetto XXX: Veggio co'bei vostri occhi - Andante tranquillo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Sonnets of Michelangelo Op. 22 for tenor and piano~Sonetto LV: Tu sa' ch'io so - Poco preto ed agitato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Sonnets of Michelangelo Op. 22 for tenor and piano~Sonetto XXXVIII: Rendete a gli occhi miei - Allegretto quasi una serena\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Sonnets of Michelangelo Op. 22 for tenor and piano~Sonetto XXXII: S'un casto amor - Vivace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Sonnets of Michelangelo Op. 22 for tenor and piano~Sonetto XXIV: Spirto ben nato - Largo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Verità (Sonetto IIOI per il papa Giulio II) - Adagio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Mattino (Sonetto XX) - Allegretto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Amore (Sonetto XXV) - Allegretto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Separazione (Madrigale) - Moderato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Rabbia (Sonetto IV su Roma durante il pontificato di Giulio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Dante (Sonetto I su Dante Alighieri) - Moderato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~All'esiliato (Sonetto II su Dante Alighieri) - Largo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Creazione (Sonetto LXI sulla morte di Vittoria Colonna) - M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Notte (Dialogo tra Giovanni Strozzi e lo Scultore) - Andant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Morte (Sonetto LXIX) - Adagio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite su versi di Michelangelo Buonarroti Op. 145 for bass and piano~Immortalità (Epitaffio per Cecchino Bracci Fiorentino) - A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5028421970127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brilliant Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.2.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Britten \/ Shostakovich \/ Milhofer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58253877641297,"sku":"95731","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4404932-3329683.jpg?v=1759467284","url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/products\/britten-shostakovich-milhofer-music-based-on-texts-by-michelangelo-cd","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
