Born in Bratislava, soprano Simona Saturova, internationally renowned for her opera and oratorio performances, dedicates her CD Nocturno to the fascination of evening and night - that time between dreams, longing, and silence that has always inspired composers and poets. The program ranges from Mozart's Abendempfindung to Schubert and Schumann to late Romanticism and early modernism. Two songs by Richard Strauss form the framework - Die Nacht as an atmospheric beginning and Morgen as a hopeful conclusion. Two piano pieces, Chopin's Nocturne in D-flat major, Op. 27 No. 2, and Schumann's In der Nacht, reflect nocturnal feelings in purely instrumental form.
