Songs From Home – Origin III

Who better to sing the praises of Switzerland’s natural beauty than Lucerne-born soprano Regula Mühlemann? Raised and trained in the heart of the Alps, the internationally renowned opera star brings a heartfelt tribute to the “Songs from Home” with her latest programme – music that stirs the soul and carries a touch of nostalgic charm. Her Sony Classical album boasts a captivating cover, somewhere between the spirit of Heidi and the artistry of Frida Kahlo. In addition to Schubert’s beloved works for duo and trio, enriched by the magical tones of clarinet and horn, Mühlemann shines a spotlight on overlooked gems by composers such as Wagner’s confidant Wilhelm Baumgartner, Fauré’s student Friedrich Niggli, as well as Marguerite Roesgen-Champion, a trailblazing harpsichordist from Geneva.
