Building a Library
Pianist Allyson Devenish chooses the ultimate recording of Schubert鈥檚 song cycle Winterreise to buy, download or stream
Schubert's "Winter's Journey" is a cycle of 24 songs across which the composer evokes a love-lorn wanderer's trek across a desolate landscape. It is as much a psychological journey as much as a musical one, which perhaps accounts for the extremely wide range of approaches and interpretations
Recommended recording: Thomas Bauer (baritone) & Jos van Immerseel (pianoforte Walter) - Zigzag ZZT101102
