Die Schone Mullerin

With Die Schone Mullerin, the lied ceases to be mere entertainment: the singer has to free himself from the role of neutral observer and identify with the character of teh traveller. Matthias Goerne is capable like no one else of donning this costume with the acute awareness that disappointment, melancholy, and teh death wish are at the end of the road. The third volume in a Schubertian venture which has already created quite a stir (Gramophone Editor's Choice and other awards.)
