Programme

Overview

The conflicts between striving and acceptance, literal and poetic truth, and life and death itself are played out in Winterreise, Schubert’s peerless setting of twenty-four poems by Wilhelm Müller.

Christoph Prégardien and Michael Gees bring their vast collective experience to its interpretation, probing its spine-chilling melancholy and aiming to uncover insights into the human condition.
