Overview

Experience the profound emotional landscape of Franz Schubert’s vocal mastery with Willkommen und Abschied, released by the prestigious Harmonia Mundi label. This collection of Lieder, titled "for the stages of life," captures the essence of Romantic feeling through the exceptional partnership of tenor Werner Güra and fortepianist Christoph Berner. Placed under the aegis of Goethe's poem Willkommen und Abschied (Greeting and Parting), the program explores the deeply existential questions of the human experience. From the roaming wanderer seeking a sense of oneness with nature to the traveler in search of meaning, these performances are steeped in the atmospheric Sturm und Drang of the era, echoing the haunting sentiment: "I am a stranger everywhere."
