Buyer Reviews : 'Four Last Songs' remains one of those pieces I will collect by many artists. I first heard this piece and this version in the film 'Year Of Living Dangerously' (one of my favorite movies of the 80's). 'Four Last Songs' brought the film to a feverish pitch which made both film and music all the more powerful. This was Richard Strauss's last composition. The power of this music is that of a man who has lived life well and wants to express his final magnificient, majestic remembrance in one last piece, and he did it so well. Kiri has one of the finest voices of opera, and found a piece in which to use it fully. This cd is a total joy and experience.
