Details:
Lullabies stir different memories and feelings for everyone. For us, they grew out of our heritage, inspired by a love of poetry and music. The words and melodies become a language of love.

They may accompany a child to sleep, as well as create a universal comfort and connection to oneâs heritage and family.

We bring these international pieces together to perhaps make the world a smaller place and to honor the ritual of ageless lullabies that crosses all cultural boundaries.

As a friend so poignantly expressed, lullabies are desserts at the end of the day when a child, in a state of slumber, is at peace with the world.

With their scintillating, beautiful voices and inviting personalities, mezzo-soprano Tessa Lang and tenor Johannes Schwaiger have enthused and delighted audiences throughout Europe and the United States. Dreamgates World Lullabiesâtheir first official solo recordingâis a collection of lullabies from around the world.

Including Brahms, Schubert and Mozart, as well as traditional folk songs, the husband and wife duo delivers a sensitively balanced program of 16 songs sung in 8 different languages.

Accompanied by either piano or with an occasional instrument or small chamber, the CD highlights include Brahmsâ Lullaby, Oyfn Pripetcheck, Dandini Dastana, Nana, Les Berceaux, Hush Little Baby (Mockingbird), The Little Sandman, and a beautiful rendition of Schubertâs Ave Maria. The collection also features the world premier of the heart- warming Dreamgates World Lullaby by Johannes Schwaiger.

The elegant and diverse lullabies are sometimes haunting and mysterious, sometimes playful and light-hearted. They are stories and expressions of life that inspire the dream we each hold in our hearts, no matter where our footsteps are on the journey.
