Franz Schubert
Winterreise, op.89, D911
Ian Bostridge • Thomas Adès
Registrazione dal vivo
"Dimenticate tutte le Winterreise che avete ascoltato finora, anche se bellissime; qui si entra in un altro mondo; un mondo aspro, impietoso, disperatamente reale nella sua spietatezza."
"If any audience is present here, they leave no audible sign. Maybe listeners were immobilised by wonder, struck dumb by the impact and wide range of Bostridge’s voice — beautiful, ugly, anguished, tender, robust, bleached...Right from the footstep tread launching the first song, Adès’s piano accompaniment never falters in its imaginative response to imagery and emotional mood...superb artistry brings its own joys."

A collection focusing on historical singers in rare recordings - mostly in the form of “portrayals”. The singers featured here are the ones who have made opera legendary. Hence the name “Il Mito dell’Opera” - “Legendary Opera”
News from the Past
This series features rarely performed operas, symphonic music and chamber works. Many of these recordings were world première recordings. Hence the title “Novità del Passato” – they are all “News from the Past”.
