Released 27/09/2024
Onyx Classics proudly presents a new release marking the 150th anniversary of Arnold Schoenberg’s birth. For this tremendous milestone, soprano Claire Booth joins with Ensemble 360 to provide a unique programme which delves into Pierrot, a fictional character often associated with human vice, with an air of insouciance and innocence. Featured are works inspired by this devious and cunning character: Schumann’s Carnival (1835), Schoenberg’s 12 song cycle Pierrot Lunaire & Thea Musgrave’s Pierrot. Rounding out the programme are works by Amy Beach, Korngold, Debussy among others.
