Franz Schubert – Lieder Volume 10 (Urtext Edition)
Volume 10 of the acclaimed new Urtext edition of Schubert’s lieder focuses on a formative period in the composer’s artistic evolution: from September 1816 to August 1817. During this time, Schubert's creative partnership with the poet Johann Mayrhofer blossomed, significantly shaping his lyrical voice and maturing his expressive style.
This collection presents songs that capture Schubert’s growing mastery of text setting and musical storytelling. Mayrhofer’s introspective and often philosophical poetry provided fertile ground for Schubert to explore emotional nuance and harmonic innovation. These works reflect a composer expanding his musical vocabulary and experimenting with new forms and textures that would later define his mature lieder.
The edition features a clear and modern musical engraving, accompanied by a foreword (in German and English) detailing the genesis, transmission, and sources of each individual song. English translations of all the lieder texts by Richard Wigmore further enhance accessibility and insight for both singers and pianists.
Ideal for students, performers, and Schubert enthusiasts seeking to delve into one of the most artistically fruitful chapters of the composer’s output.
