Gregory Massingham and Stephen Emmerson present Schubert’s complete song-cycle, Winterreise, one of the final works Franz Schubert composed before his death.
Poet Wilhem Müller and Franz Schubert never met, but in Müller’s words Schubert found the perfect material to set to song. Music that celebrates a life well lived.
Accompanying the performance will be a presentation of majestic winter landscapes by the German landscape painter, Caspar David Friedrich, providing a perfect visual compliment to Schubert’s musicality.
