This CD portrays the lyric dramatic soprano with famous arias and scenes from operas by Richard Strauss and Richard Wagner, including the grueling final scenes from Tristan und Isolde and from Salome.
The featured arias reflect the lyrical and dramatic facets of Camilla Nylund's current roles at such venues as Staatsoper Dresden, Vienna State Opera, and Bayreuther Festspiele.
The Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra is led by their chief conductor Hannu Lintu.
CD booklet also includes full libretti.
"Nylund is temperamentally suited to this kind of thing - Isolde's so-called Liebestod is the disc's big success...yet she manages the conversational tone of [the Arabella scene] well, and her long address to the tree in Daphne is attractive too" BBC Music
