Overview
Schubert: The Complete Songs reaches itsmidpoint, a milestone marked by the upliftingmelody of Schiller’s ‘An die Freude’, createdalmost a decade before Beethoven set the sametext at the close of his Ninth Symphony.
Roderick Williams also embraces the more serious mattersof ‘Todesmusik’ and ‘Schatzgräbers Begehr’before closing with another joyful Schiller setting,‘Dithyrambe’.
