About This Item
Frage is the opening chapter of Christian Gerhahrer's project to record all of Schumann's songs. For Gerhaher himself, this represents the fulfillment of a long-cherished dream and, as he himself emphasizes, is Inchprobably the most important project of my entire life.Inch Since Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's pioneering recording of the 1970s no other singer has devoted himself so comprehensively to Robert Schumann's complete lieder output. Frage will focus on one key cycle. The twelve Kerner Lieder op. 35 are combined here with the op. 49 and op. 89 cycles as well as with the Sechs Gesänge op. 107 and the Vier Gesänge op. 142. This project will include his long-time collaborator and pianist Gerold Huber and fellow singers Julia Kleiter, Wiebke Lehmkuhl, Sybilla Rubens, Camilla Tilling and Martin Mitterutzner.
