'Di Sheyne Milnerin' takes its cue from the great Schubert cycle, 'Die Schone Mullerin.' As in the original, it tells a tale of unrequited love but using songs from the rich Yiddish tradition. You can order or download it online at: http://www.amazon.com/Di-Sheyne-Milnerin-Schuberts-Cycle/dp/B0091EF31M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1357678613&sr=8-1&keywords=sheyne+milnerin Here's what the press think so far: 'This is all as heart-rending as the Schubert cycle and the music, though completely new to me, conveys the feelings just as graphically as Schubert’s does... This is a fascinating issue and I urge readers to give it a try. It is music off the beaten track, but that’s where one often makes the real discoveries.' Musicweb International 'Glanville captured perfectly the characteristic melancholy of Yiddish music. His bass-baritone voice projects very well: it is powerful yet not overbearing... Knapp’s imaginative piano arrangements are highly intricate yet still flow beautifully.' Bachtrack 'In sum, anyone who enjoys the Lieder repertoire will relish this quirky and original twist on that art form.'
