Info zu Schubert: Die schöne Müllerin, Op. 25, D. 795 (Live)

Naive Liebesgeschichte mit kosmischer Bedeutung: Ian Bostridge setzt zusammen mit der Pianistin Saskia Giorgini seine Auseinandersetzung mit den Schubert-Lied-Zyklen auf PENTATONE mit einer Aufnahme von Die schöne Müllerin fort.Die schöne Müllerin (1823) war Schuberts erster Liederzyklus und gleichzeitig Bostridges erste ausgedehnte Einführung in das Lied und all seine Wunder. Schubert konzipierte den Zyklus zusammen mit dem Dichter Wilhelm Müller zunächst als Partyspiel unter Freunden, war aber nach und nach fasziniert von der Tiefgründigkeit dieser scheinbar naiven Liebesgeschichte. Bostridge ist ebenso beeindruckt von der Art und Weise, wie sich dieses verspielte, volkstümliche Stück in den letzten Zeilen des letzten Liedes »Des Baches Wiegenlied« allmählich in ein kosmisches Wiegenlied verwandelt.
