"The New Song" in the SACD+CD format by Lawo Classics presents Norwegian mezzo-soprano Marianne Kielland in an intimate and finely sculpted program that explores the richness and subtle emotional palette of the art song repertoire. The hybrid configuration (SACD stereo/multichannel plus standard CD) combines audiophile-grade surround depth with everyday playback compatibility, allowing the listener to experience the nuances of Kielland's voice and the accompanying instruments with exceptional clarity, presence, and dynamic range. Carefully curated and recorded with great attention to detail, the album focuses on text, color, and phrasing, offering a contemplative, modern yet timeless journey through songs that span introspective lyricism, subdued drama, and finely shaded melancholy.
