Description
Volume 27 of the Schubert Edition is devoted to settings of the famous Schlegel brothers, August and Friedrich, whose lives and work are written about at length in Graham Johnsonâs notes, with much information never presented before in English. Some of Schubertâs greatest and most attractive songs appear on this disc, including the three Petrarch sonnets (two of them translated by August Schlegel, the delightful but almost unknown Wiedersehen, and the sublime Im Walde.
All of the music on this album is also available as part of the specially priced box set The Complete Songs of Franz Schubert: âThis is an archive of glorious Lieder singing as much as it is a definitive treasury of the greatest Lieder ever composedâ (The Guardian).
