Marie-Nicole Lemieux's 2001 album "Berlioz: Les nuits d'été - Wagner: Wesendonck-Lieder - Mahler: Rückert-Lieder" is a captivating exploration of romantic opera, showcasing her extraordinary vocal prowess. This collection features a blend of works by three influential composers: Hector Berlioz, Richard Wagner, and Gustav Mahler. The album opens with Berlioz's "Les nuits d'été," a cycle of six songs that beautifully capture the essence of summer nights.
