    Over time, I have come to truly cherish Mahler’s KINDERTOTENLIEDER. I’ve recently discovered an arrangement by Andreas N. Tarkmann that I especially like: played by musicians of the WDR Symphony Orchestra and sung by Sara Gouzy (photo above).

    The live recording dates from January 2024. Watch and listen here.
