About This Song
About "6 Gesänge, Op.34: II. "Auf Flügeln des Gesanges"" by Anthony Leroy
On wings of song, Leroy’s cello takes flight—a lyrical Mendelssohn miniature lifted by piano’s gentle currents. The melody soars with unforced sweetness, yet a faint melancholy hums beneath the wings, as if the flight were also a farewell.
