Title: why I'm not crazy about Sarah Brightman (M5/Adagietto)
Post by: barry guerrero on October 14, 2008, 03:49:27 PM

Has anyone heard the latest Sarah Brightman cd, "Symphony"? She does a truly beautiful rendition of Mahler's Adagietto from the 5th symphony (it ends with a V-I cadence just before the development section, where there's a big key change). However, there's absolutely no mention of Gus Mahler anywhere in the booklet. She simply credits the guy who did the arrangement. I also have no idea what the words are, since diction isn't exactly her forte. Come to think of it, that's probably a good thing. FYI.

I cringe at the thought. :P
