About

The words of this unusual composition come from a work called “Lallah Rookh” by Thomas Moore, who was a contemporary of Schumann. The Peri is a Persian spirit who has been cast out of Paradise. In this work, Schumann produced some rich choral writing and the role of Peri is a particularly difficult one. Sylvain Cambreling conducts.
