About
Erich J. Wolff’s name will be unfamiliar to many but in the 1920s an authoritative reference book on popular art song ranked his compositions fourth, behind Hugo Wolf, Richard Strauss and Gustav Mahler. The first volume in this series of Wolff’s Complete Songs introduces a composer of astonishing gifts whose Romanticism is as daring as his formal sophistication. Wolff’s songs are lyrical, serene and full of melodic beauty, coupled with piano writing that is both virtuosic and atmospheric.

Reviews
"... Johannsen and Simon bring the program to a close with 3 melodramatic setting of anonymous texts with Johannsen as narrator. These songs came as a delightful surprise to me. I am grateful to Simon for his advocacy of them..."
Robert A Moore – American Record Guide – July/August 2024
“…Samantha Gaul brings her charming soprano to two of the Wunderhorn songs. Klaus Simon’s strong, incisive rhetoric at the piano contributes just as much to the listening experience as Johannsen. His playing is highly concentrated, full of spontaneity and exciting energy. And so this edition cannot be welcomed emphatically enough. Wolff definitely belongs back in today’s song world.” *****
