Lied Edition 30-Poets of Sensibility, Vol. 6

The Naxos Deutsche Schubert-Lied-Edition: Schubert set the poetry of over 115 writers to music. He selected poems from classical Greece, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, from eighteenth-century German authors, early Romantics, Biedermeier poets, and Heine. The Deutsche Schubert-Lied-Edition presents all Schubert's Lieder , over 700 songs, grouped according to the poets who inspired him. Thanks to Bärenreiter's Neue Schubert-Ausgabe (New Schubert Edition), Tübingen, which uses primary sources, the performers have been able to benefit from the most recent research of the editorial team. Naxos's acclaimed series of Schubert's Lieder continues with a selection of songs with texts by contemporaneous poets such as Johann Gaudenz, Baron von Salis-Seewis, Friedrich von Köpken and Peter Johann Uz, important early Romantics whose fame today owes much to Schubert's enduring settings.
