Marlis Petersen (soprano), Anke Vondung (mezzo-soprano), Werner Güra (tenor), Konrad Jarnot (bass) & Christoph Berner (fortepiano) Sometimes written in dialogue or in unison, sometimes close to opera, to a Singspiel scene or to choral music, Schubert's vocal duets, trios and quartets show the full variety of his creative impulses. These brief vocal ensembles composed for gatherings of friends, the famous ‘Schubertiads', display a skill and a taste for freedom that hold an immediate appeal for today's listener – for here one sings purely for pleasure. “There are treasures here...Marlis Petersen’s bright soprano in Delphine; Werner Güra, a peerless Schubertian tenor, in the cantata-like Der Sänger. The less well-known Anke Vondung (mezzo) and Konrad Jarnot (bass) are no less compelling in their solos, while Berner’s period fortepiano contributes perkily to the domestic ambience of the recital.” Sunday Times, 14th April 2013 “This is a high-quality disc for collectors of Schubert's less famous vocal pieces.” International Record Review, May 2013 “This disc is for the real Schubert connoisseur. It's a recreation of a Schubertiade...The recital is a delight from start to finish, warmly recorded, accompanied by Christoph Berner on a gentle-toned Roenisch fortepiano and with the delectable articulation you'd expect from four native German speakers.” BBC Music Magazine, June 2013 **** “Solemn, saucy or blithe, this is essentially convivial music, to be enjoyed in company, with a glass at hand...Berner and his regular vocal team are well-nigh ideal advocates. The four singers muster an impressive body of tone...The solo songs come off equally well.” Gramophone Magazine, June 2013 |
