STEREO · RECORDINGS FROM 1996-1997
A voyage of discovery through a lesser-known area of Schubert’s rich and prolific output, this collection comprises seven themed CDs: Transience; Love; Eternity; Heroism; Nature; Celebrations, and Circle of Friends. “Each disc has its share of the treasures,” wrote Gramophone, “The Arnold Schoenberg Choir is a fine body of musicians … they show a virtually unflawed beauty and opulence of tone.” Vocal soloists include Ruth Ziesak, Angelika Kirchschlager, Christoph Prégardien and Robert Holl, and among the featured pianists are András Schiff and Andreas Staier. This complete edition of Schubert’s secular choral works won major prizes in Germany, France, Belgium and Japan on its first release in 1997.
