Music reviews of Schubert: Lieder
Music Review: Schubert's Greatest Art Songs
Rating: 5 Stars
This album is an absolute must for fans of Lieder and moreover for fans of baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. On this EMI recording- a collection of Franz Schubert's Lieder for lyric baritone voice and piano. Dieskau provides the voice and Gerald Moore is on the piano. It's heavenly music. It would compliment your collection of opera, chamber music or other Schubert music perfectly. Franz Schubert lived and died during the same time as Beethoven and it was likely he was overshadowed by Beethoven's greatness. Nevertheless, after Schubert's death and throughout the 20th century, his music was finally acknowledged as having great merit. With Beethoven, Schubert pioneered the first budding of the Romantic movement that would endure throughout the 19th century up to 1900. Sometimes, Schubert's music comes dangerously close to sounding like Beethoven. The classical restraint is evident in some of the more romantic, lyrical slower movements but the dramatics and fortissimo of the Romantic Era was there in some of the more dynamic allegro passages. Schubert was a Romantic. Tragically, he died of syphillis while he was still in his 30's but he had written over hundreds of great musical compositions and 600 songs. Among his finest are the Lieder, the Winteressen, and his symphonies, among them the 8th "Unfinished Symphony" and the 9th the Great Symphony in C Major as well as incidental music and overtures and a wealth of piano trios and chamber music. Dieskau is perfectly suited for singing the Lieder. His voice radiates with shine and poetic balance for these simple, elegant parlor songs. Many of them are poetry set to music, romantic thoughts about nature and love, etc, trademarks of the Romantic Age. He set music to the writings of Goethe. Among these is the moving and tragic Die Erlkonig. This is about the Elf King who is also Death and takes the life of an ill young boy who is carried in his father's arms as they ride on horseback to their home. But he dies in his father's arms after hallucinating about the Elf King. Dieskau makes this moment sound very real. Die Forelle, which is the last song on here, is a happier story. It tells of a fisherman and a fish. The music seems to imitate the flow of a stream and the swimming of a fish. It's the most German song I can think of. Beautiful and pleasant to hear.
