Johannes Martin Kr nzle - Songs After Poems By Goethe & Schiller - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

I will always remember Johannes Martin Kranzle´s and Hilko Dumno's Winterreise journey as the most vivid I have experienced. A Winterreise of the now, where one had the feeling of actually accompanying the journey. A Winterreise in which one had the distinct feeling of walking arm in arm with the artists, in which the boundary between stage and auditorium had been removed - not through contrived pathos or deliberate artistry but through the sheer authenticity and forthright passion of these two supremely generous artists.Victor Medem, Director of the Schubertiada Vilabertran Album Tracks 1.

All things Mozart have been said and done, you'd think. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. The exegesis of the Mozart verse is a full-time job to many. The works on this recording alone raise a bunch of questions of which several remain unanswered. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's story for clarinet and string ensemble hasn't been fully written yet. Part of it is voiced through some of the most often performed works in the repertoire. Still, every clarinetist is left with the challenge to get hands-on with the music and put a personal, original spin on it. To accomplish this, one has to be willing to do the necessary homework, returning to the source - and to go about it diligently.
