Fatma Said's previous Warner Classics albums crossed cultures and fused musical genres. Now the soprano moves her focus to German-language songs of the Romantic era. At the age of 18 Fatma left her native Cairo to study at the Hanns Eisler Conservatory in Berlin. "Ever since then, the joy of singing lieder has been central to my musical life," she says. "I am very passionate about this wonderful combination of great German poetry and genius composers like Schubert, Schumann, Mendelssohn, and Brahms."

A lieder recital generally involves one singer and one pianist. For this album, Fatma Said has taken a different approach. As she says, "I've always wanted to make music with friends,", and she calls on the talents of no fewer than three pianists (Malcolm Martineau, Joseph Middleton and Yonatan Cohen), harpist Anneleen Lenaerts, clarinettist Sabine Meyer (in Schubert's 'Der Hirt auf dem Felsen'), the string players of Quatuor Arod, male-voice ensemble Walhalla zum Seidlwirt, and another rising-star singer - baritone Huw Montague Rendall.

The programme combines much-loved lieder like Schubert's 'Ständchen', Schumann's 'Widmung' and Brahms' 'Wie Melodien zieht es mir' with less familiar repertoire. Throughout the album, Fatma Said places a crucial emphasis on the poetic texts: "My priority was to convey the characterisation of the words most of all ... Differentiating between diverse kinds of expressive worlds is for me what lieder-singing is all about."
