With their very accessible style and expressive interpretation of the words, these contemporary works continue in the tradition of classical and romantic song cycles and will form a form a welcome addition to every song recital. Abendröte is a cycle that brooks comparison with the songs Schubert wrote on the same set of Schlegel poems: Trojahn has composed the poems Schubert chose not to set.
