Obra: Wiedersehn (A. W. v. Schlegel), D.855

Von der Barockmusik zu Schubert-Liedern war es in Baden-Baden für Philippe Jaroussky kein unbedingt gradliniger Weg.

The intimacy of Schubert’s Lieder almost guarantees that no words can be missed. In comparison to say, a 100-strong choir competing with a full orchestra, the poetic element of Lieder is unmissable, and thus it occupies a larger part of the concertgoer’s attention. Schubert of course recognised this, and selected his wordsmiths carefully.
