Schumann lovers are more in debt than ever to Hyperion

2010

Hyperion's Schumann song series has already produced some profoundly satisfying discs, but none quite to equal the pleasures found on this volume. Its centrepiece, Myrthen – the cycle of love songs celebrating the union of Clara and Robert – is framed by eight duets to form a wonderfully balanced offering, and one that could hardly be surpassed in execution, through the understanding and skills of the three participants.
If one has to be singled out for particular praise, it must be Dorothea Röschmann. In tones at once fresh, warm and communicative, she sings all her contributions with an ideal balance between word and note. To such a familiar and lovely song as 'Der Nussbaum' she brings a heartfelt sense of anticipated pleasure that bears comparison with any of the heap of noted performances from the past, occasional vibrato used to arresting effect, as in all her readings. And 'Lied der Suleika' has its intensity underlined by the palpitating intimacy of her singing.
Not to be outdone, Bostridge presents deeply considered accounts of all his songs, combining his silvery, lightly tremulous tone with his customary feeling for words, most notably in the song 'Aus den hebräischen Gesängen' and the two Venetian Songs. Even better is his sensitive enactment of the marvellous setting of Heine, 'Was will die einsame Träne', which reveals his complete understanding of the idiom, and of the popular 'Du bist wie eine Blume', where his halfvoice is skilfully deployed.
Johnson is on his most alert and empathetic form at the piano throughout. In the two sets of duets, full of Schumann at his most easeful, the voices intertwine effortlessly. Some oldsters will recall the famous, endearingly romantic Lehmann/ Melchior recordings of some of these: Röschmann and Bostridge are just as persuasive.
With one of Hyperion's best recordings to complement the performances, voices nicely forward, this disc is definitely one to have.

Hyperion’s Schumann Edition has reached new heights … with one of Hyperion’s very best recordings to complement the performances, voices nicely forward, this disc is definitely one to have … ideally sung,
intelligently interpreted and marvellously accompanied
