About this product
The fruitful exchange between harp practice and composition - The harp is a unique instrument in many ways. With it's unmistakable sound and specific playing technique, the expertise of harpists is indispensable for composers, many of whom are not harpists themselves. In the best-case scenario, both sides win from this exchange - the composer is inspired by the possibilities of the instrument, and the composition reveals new facets of the instrument. For this recording, Julia Wacker has gathered a number of felicitous examples of such exchanges between performer and composer, as each of these 20th-century pieces presents the many facets and often surprising aspects of the harp. Album Tracks 1. Sonata for Harp Op. 150 (1955) 2. Deux Impromptus Pour Harpe (1925) 3. Sonata Per Arpa Op. 68 (1943) 4. Divertissements Pour la Harpe (1924) 5. Suite for Harp Op. 83 (1969) 6. Präludium, Arioso Und Passacaglia (1987)

![Schubert / Heide - Wanderer - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/75aa50cd-8da0-4137-8085-03fbdd95d560.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
If you take stock of all the lieder composed by Schumann, Brahms, Wolf, Mahler, Strauss, Debussy, and of course, Schubert, you will note that the majority are slow, meditative, contemplative. Virtuosity is not an essential part of the equation in the lied genre, at least not in the sense of rapid vocal coloraturas or thundering piano passages. The song automatically comes with a text included, and this opens up another world entirely. This has musical implications as well. In Schubert's case, a great poem whose verses convey a striking message is provided with a magnificently sensual musical frame that allows the text to exude a powerful influence on the listener. InchWandering,Inch or, better yet, InchstrollingInch through nature is part of the very essence of the Romantic poet, with all his loneliness and longing. He contemplates nature, he listens to the silence, he describes inner emotional states. InchWanderingInch could also imply a sort of movement, but in Schubert's lieder we are actually dealing with an individual subject who is moving, InchwanderingInch through the time allotted to him on this earth. We are confronted with a series of snapshots, doubts, and fears. Whenever Schubert depicts the inner emotional state of the soul, he is always honest and truthful. This is Andre Schuen's third album. His first two have been rave-reviewed all over the globe. Schuen counts as one of the young stars in the world of vocalists, and not only participates in the highest level of festivals, but also in the world's biggest opera houses. Album Tracks 1.
