T01193300139International opera and theatre director and Ustinov Studio Artistic Director Deborah Warner brings to life Schubert's Winterreise (Winter Journey), a cycle of 24 songs for voice and piano set to poems by Wilhelm Müller, performed by renowned tenor Ian Bostridge and pianist Julius Drake. A man begins a long journey through the snow in deepest winter. He wanders alone, grief stricken, longing to forget the memories of his beloved who has rejected him. His journey is tortured, painful and leads him to question his identity and existence. Composed in 1827 towards the end of his short life, Franz Schubert's Winterreise is considered one of the greatest and most powerful musical masterpieces. The music captures the torrent of emotion and poetic themes of loneliness, darkness, winter and love. Deborah Warner's new staging for the Ustinov Studio honours Schubert's original intention for the piece to be sung to an intimate gathering.Music Schubert. Performer Ian Bostridge. | |
