The Trip to Italy part 6

[ArgyMargy]

I know some of you know this - what was the beautiful music used on the last of the current series, The Trip to Italy? Tried to use Shazam but clearly it doesn't do classical opera. Please can you help me?

I do t know but also thought it was beautiful

And I really really really really want to go to the last restaurant!

[ArgyMargy]

Agreed - and it didn't seem quite as expensive as the others!!

I think it's 'Im Abendrot' from Richard Strauss's Four Last Songs

[ArgyMargy]

Thanks Raia!

[ArgyMargy]

There's me thinking it would be an Italian composer! Just listened to Renee Fleming on YouTube - such a beautiful piece of music and really wonderful singing. Thanks again Raia.

Me too, I thought it must be Italian so it was surprising to find out it's German! It's absolutely gorgeous music isn't it?
