<br>Thanks a lot, Roger.<br><br>I did mention Reynaldo Hahn in my line-up of Hahns:<br><br><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">• Reynaldo Hahn (Venezuelan composer of Jewish-German and Basque
descent, naturalized French citizen, lover of Marcel Proust [who once
said, "Everything I have ever done has always been thanks to
Reynaldo."])</span><br style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"></div>
<br></div>That his father was from Hamburg was news to me, however. His name must have been Karl Hahn before his time in Venezuela. (I had an uncle by that name, probably one among many men.)<br><br>To my shame I have to admit that I'm not terribly familiar with Hahn's music, but I think that the little I've heard of it so far has a lovely lyrical quality. I have noticed that the poems he chose to write music to tend to have what I consider a "Chinese hue", which seems just about right, considering that his time was that of East Asian (re-)discovery in European, especially French, art circles.<br>
<br>And thanks for the samples<br><br>Regards,<br>Reinhard/Ron<br>Seattle, USA<br></div><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
