Florian Boesch - Schumann: Dichterliebe & Kerner Lieder - The Sunday Times

The contradictory qualities of passion and restraint, or abandon and control, that are required to navigate Schumann’s immortal song cycle are ones that Boesch encompasses with ease. The Austrian baritone’s recording with the great pianist Martineau is a wonderful addition to the Dichterliebe library.

The pair then turn their attention to the relatively unsung Kerner Lieder and again cast a Schumannic spell.
