Mahler for violin and piano? Why not! The violin is probably the instrument most akin to the human voice and Mahler was a prolific song writer.

Georgian violinist, Lisa Batiashvili, has chosen five songs, in arrangementsby Ronald Kornfeil, to enhance her own and others' concert repertoire. She offers a selection from ''Aus der Jugendzeit'', ''Fahrenden Gesellen'' and ''Des Knaben Wunderhorn'', including the gorgeous ''Urlicht''.
