Both of the composer’s ‘obbligato’ songs (‘Der Hirt auf dem Felsen’ and ‘Auf dem Strom’) are included as are five of Schubert’s most popular Lieder in recordings by Danco previously unreleased on CD. But at the centre of this recital is a selection of Schubert’s Partsongs. Their origins lie in the vital demand for this kind of music in the context of the social life of Vienna during the composer’s lifetime. The male-voice quartet was a staple feature in the city’s concert halls but even more so in the homes of the cultured middle-classes. Much of Schubert’s writing for this medium is in an ‘unbuttoned’ mood, providing material for friendly gatherings. Even so, we find among these partsongs for men’s or mixed voices, many which carry the unmistakable stamp of his genius – the gorgeous ‘Ständchen’, or the tranquil, other-worldly ‘Nachthelle’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/REVIEWS_CS_WORLD_7169b53a-dbe6-4c81-930b-be7f7575534e_480x480.png?v=1597936904\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e‘This disc most delightfully extends the small number of Schubert’s part-songs that has been recorded and these beautifully sung performances, very well recorded, capture the intimate spirit of music written primarily for friendly gatherings … Robert Tear sings his part with lovely tone … A contralto solo part woven into ‘Ständchen’ is beautifully sung by Helen Watts … this lovely disc gave me intense pleasure’ (Partsongs) Gramophone\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e‘’Der Hirt auf dem Felsen’ is marvellously clean and instrumental in execution’ [Danco] Gramophone\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_1_4b3088c9-df3c-47ba-bf41-5b7e5d1a8144_480x480.png?v=1597936873\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFRANZ SCHUBERT\u003cbr\u003eGebet, D.815\u003cbr\u003eNachthelle, D.892\u003cbr\u003eGott in der Natur, D.757\u003cbr\u003eJünglingswonne, D.983\u003cbr\u003eStändchen, D.920\u003cbr\u003eGondelfahrer, D.809\u003cbr\u003eGott meine Zuversicht, D.706 (Psalm 23)\u003cbr\u003eGott in Ungewitter, D.985\u003cbr\u003eChor der Engel ‘Christ ist erstanden’, D.440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElizabethan Singers\u003cbr\u003eViola Tunnard, piano\u003cbr\u003eLouis Halsey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuf dem Strom, D.943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRobert Tear, tenor\u003cbr\u003eNeill Sanders, horn\u003cbr\u003eLamar Crowson, piano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDer Hirt auf dem Felsen, D.965\u003cbr\u003eDie Forelle, D.550\u003cbr\u003eGretchen am Spinnrade, D.118\u003cbr\u003eDer Musensohn, D.764\u003cbr\u003eDu bist die Ruh, D.776\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSuzanne Danco, soprano\u003cbr\u003eGervase de Peyer, clarinet\u003cbr\u003eGuido Agosti, piano\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DECCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32337290264663,"sku":"028948021574 - ETC","price":4.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/products\/00028948021574-cover.jpg?v=1600190629","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/en-de\/products\/schubert-partsongs-auf-dem-strom-der-hirt-auf-dem-felsen-elizabethan-singers-danco-s-de-peyer-g-tunnard-v","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
