The Hyperion Schubert Edition 18 / Peter Schreier, Graham

The Hyperion Schubert Edition 18 / Peter Schreier, Graham Johnson

Volume 18 in Hyperion's complete Schubert song series features tenor Peter Schreier, who presents a lovely program rich in Romantic imagery. The highlight of this disc is the mini song cycle On the Wild Paths to poems by Ernst Schulze. These are typically full of "nature" themes: stars, waves, the forest, the seasons--that sort of thing, and it's just amazing how Schubert comes up with a totally apt accompaniment for each poem. Heavy German, to be sure, but great music too. --David Hurwitz
