Winterreise - Le Voyage d'Hiver

Description

A magnificent deluxe Book and Record! The first recording by the young French baritone, Edwin Crossley Mercer. When Schubert’s lieder also inspire the painter Claudine Franck, who is none other than the singer’s mother... The thread running through this moving story is provided by this character who appears in every illustration and is never the same, following the creative process of W. Muller and F. Schubert. This traveler, who gives a symbolic and prophetic interpretation to everything he sees, draws us with him into the depths of the human soul, whose secret only Schubert knows how to unlock. Combining musicality, declamation, and figurative art, this book-record offers a synesthetic perception of the Romantic Lied through the original collaboration between these two musicians and the painter Claudine Franck
