Pushing the envelope of modern classical music, Varah composes purely instrumental works, as well as ones that combine technology with orchestral instruments.
Bio / Background
Four Neruda Songs, for soprano and guitar. Nikki Einfeld, soprano; Michael Goldberg, guitar. (11:59)
Album Description
Pablo Neruda is the poet every latin-american lover knows. Hear soprano Nikki Einfeld infuse these songs with passion, matched by guitarist, Michael Golberg's rich, resonant guitar. The four poems reflect the stages of love over time: adolescent attraction, idealization, the love that is a result of surviving life's struggles, and a reflective love.
