Die Schone Mullerin : Florian Boesch(Br)Martineau(P)

Florian Boesch and Malcolm Martineau continue their journey through the Schubert song cycles with Die Schne Mullerin, composed in 1823 to poetry by Wilhelm Muller. The words are simple but depict powerful human emotions and vivid images of nature. Schubert's imagination was seized by the opportunities the poems offered, and his music captures the dramatic conflicts and character portraits in a way he never achieved in his operatic works. The same team's recording of Winterreise was warmly received by critics, with the Guardian calling it, unquestionably superb, and Gramophone Magazine hailing it as, inspired and quite unforgettable.
