Ian Bostridge (tenor)
3CD + DVD
Particularly renowned for his insightful and sensitive performances, acclaimed tenor Ian Bostridge is on fine form in these three major Schubert song cycles. Alongside his affecting interpretation of Die schöne Müllerin and deeply felt Winterreise is his celebrated recording of Schwanengesang, which won golden opinions for its ‘marvellously haunting expression’ (Gramophone). This three-disc set includes a bonus DVD of Winterreise with pianist Julius Drake, as well as the documentary film Over the Top with Franz.
This release coincides with Ian Bostridge’s new book on Winterreise: Schubert's Winter Journey: Anatomy of an Obsession, published by Faber & Faber and available from Presto here.
