ENGEL LUND'S BOOK OF FOLK SONGS
Nimbus Records, NI5813
"Engel Lund's collection of folksongs is a casket of musical gems. Ferdinand Rauter's piano parts are crafted in a way that never destroys the simplicity or the national character of the originals - and they cover a wide range, from Lund's native Iceland to Austria, from Eastern Europe to Kentucky. All are performed with precision and aplomb by Norbert Meyn's team of young singers and pianists." Roger Vignoles, Prince Consort Professor of Piano Accompaniment, Royal College of Music
