SCHUBERT: SCHWANENGESANG; BRAHMS: VIER ERNSTE GESANGE - Gerald Finley, Julius Drake

This recording from Gerald Finley and Julius Drake features an inspired coupling of two contrasting, yet complementary, sets of "swan songs." Despite the three decades in age that separate Brahms and Schubert at the time of writing, both are among their very final works and are poignant reflections on the transience of life.
