Schubert: Die Taubenpost
Tenor Mark Padmore and pianist Paul Lewis conclude their acclaimed Schubert triptych with this revelatory account of Schwanengesang, the third and last of the great Schubert cycles, collected and published after the composer’s death. Auf dem Strom for tenor, horn and piano, and the gently hopeful song Die Sterne complete the programme. Singer and pianist are perfectly matched in temperament and musicality, and every note has been lovingly considered . . . Exquisitely thoughtful and refined. – The Telegraph, UK (Review of Die schöne Müllerin)
