Winterreise (Winter's Journey) by Schubert reviewed by Allyson Devenish Building a Library 30th December 2023

She chooses the ultimate recording of Schubert’s song cycle Winterreise to buy, download or stream it 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
