"Johan Reuter synger Schuberts sidste store sangcyklus "Die Winterreise" sammen med Copenhagen String Quartet. Det er både en fremragende og en usædvanlig udgivelse ... Der er en meget fin overensstemmelse mellem Johan Reuters smukke bas-baryton og strygekvartetten. Reuter får musikkens stille smerte og længsel og enkelthed meget klart frem. Jeg har lyttet med bevæget nysgerrighed til denne forunderlige rejse og kan kun anbefale den. Men Schuberts original er naturligvis klaveret, som i sin klarhed virker farligere".

"This very fine account of Die Winterreise completes what has become one of the most distinguished recent triptychs of Schubert song cycles on disc. Güra's approach, wonderfully lucid, and immaculately controlled and coloured, invites comparisons with the great German tenor Peter Schreier ... while the pianist Christoph Berner understands his part in the dramatic scheme exactly".

"Zum Abschluss seiner drei Lieder-Zyklen von Franz Schubert veröffentlicht der aus Südtirol stammenden Bariton Andrè Schuen die "Winterreise", welche eigentlich am Anfang stand, da sie schon 2019 aufgenommen wurde. Der ernste Zyklus liegt dem in diesem Jahr 40-Jährigen deutlich besser als die unbedenklichere "Müllerin" oder der eher abgeklärte "Schwanengesang"".

"Der schwedische Bariton Peter Mattei hat sich die Winterreise lange aufgespart ... Die Stimme ist nun völlig ausgereift und sie hat sich nach 28 Karrierejahren ihren jugendlichen Glanz bewahrt. Sie überwältigt den Hörer erst einmal durch die schiere Klangfülle und die Schönheit des Timbres. Mattei verfügt über eine satte Tiefe und tenorale Strahlkraft, der Wechsel der Register ist bruchlos, er singt mit weitem, ruhigem Atem und erlaubt es dem Hörer, sich bei seinem Vortrag entspannt zurück zu lehnen. In der Durchdringung von Text und Musik erweist der Sänger ein tiefer gehendes Verständnis ... Eine sängerische Meisterleistung in jeder Hinsicht, die allerdings mehr begeistert als tatsächlich berührt".

"The lyric tenor Mathias Hedegaard is one of the foremost Danish singers, both as opera artist and recitalist ... Hedegaard's reading of the cycle has many good features: his enunciation is good, he is deeply involved, he is very careful over nuances, he can colour his tone to underline moods ... As in every good reading of this cycle the intensity increases in the second half ... Das Wirtshaus and Die Nebensonnen are particularly touching. The total timing is almost 76 minutes which places this reading among the slowest, but while listening one never has a feeling that it drags ... An honest and deeply felt reading that should satisfy many listeners. Mathias Hedegaard is well supported by Tove Lønskov".

"With wisdom (or naivety), I openly declare that my benchmark for any new performance of Franz Schubert's Winterreise is the incomparable German lyric baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's Deutsche Grammophon edition released in 1972; he was accompanied by Gerald Moore. Fischer-Dieskau made several recordings of this masterpiece, the first in 1955 and the last in 1990, but this one seems to me unbeatable ... This recording impressed me. The tenor has a wide-ranging voice which is sometimes more like a high baritone. He is brilliant at capturing the massive mood swings inherent in this song cycle. Despair is contrasted with hope, intimacy with mordant humour. It is a splendid song recital".

"Mathias Hedegård har en smuk og følsom lyrisk tenor, og han formår at trænge indadvendt dybt og dramatisk ind i ungersvendens fortælling om sin sprøde kærlighedstragedie. Den er fortalt så ægte og stille uden banal selvoptagelse, at denne tolkning er til mange gentagelser at lytte til og stadig at finde flere fine nuancer i ... Et andet plus er Tove Lønskovs både meget klare og meget følsomme klaverakkompagnement. Det lytter man betaget til, som det smyger sig om sangstemmen og bærer den ind i ensomheden".

"Vurdering: Recording of the month" - "Here Eric Schneiders contribution to the interpretation seems to be considerable. In matters of tempi, he takes some freedoms and these artists are generally not inclined to linger ... This is a wonderfully sung, passionate reading of Winterreise that will bear comparison with those of any of the illustrious names mentioned above"rovided you have at least the remnants of a sweet tooth and dont mind un.

""[Drake] follows Alice Coote like a shadow, finding appropriate colours to underline her interpretation ... I don't believe I have ever heard [Der Lindenbaum] more beautifully sung ... The chill, the unease is there in her reading, but the biggest emotions are calmed down, or masked, but behind the small gestures one imagines a big black hole in the traveller's soul ... Together Alice Coote and Julius Drake have guided us with deep empathy and musical good taste along this emotional wandering and left longstanding imprint in at least one listener".

"Recording of the month: Skovhus and Vladar's Die schöne Müllerin and Schwanengesang were really great achievements. Their Winterreise is tremendously good. Their collective involvement is so strong that it carries over to the listener through so neutral a medium as a CD and a couple of speakers with almost visual effect".

"Danmarks førende baryton Johan Reuter ... er en fremragende liedsanger, [hvilket] man kan forvisse sig om på en ny cd fra Danacord ... Der er det særlige ved denne indspilning, at sangeren ikke bliver akkompagneret af et klaver, men af en strygekvartet ... og selvom man enkelte steder (musikelskere er jo også vanedyr) kan savne klaverakkompagnementet, har Krug klogt udnyttet strygernes muligheder".

"Verdensbarytonen fra Det Kongelige Teater, Johan Reuter, synger Schuberts sangcyklus Winterreise sammen med en strygekvartet ... og hvad de her laver, er virkelig fremragende ... Hans fortolkninger har maskulin styrke. Men smerten og bitterheden i sangene om den romantiske outsider og hans dødsdrift forløses med en grundtone af nobel alvor, og magisk nok forplanter den sig til de fire musikere med strygeinstrumenter og buer".

"Mathias Hedegaards stemme har nærvær og intensitet i hver stavelse gennem samtlige 24 sange, og stemmens timbre - altså dens særlige sammensætning af klangfarver - med dens fascinerende forening af saftighed, spændstighed og kant når man ikke at blive træt af. Den intimitet og det drama, Hedegaard skaber, da han i sangen om sine frosne tårer kommer helt tæt på lytterens trommehinder, er i topklasse ... Han synger Schubert på internationalt niveau, og pianisten Tove Lønskov ved klaveret viser, hvorfor hun i et helt liv har været foretrukket som akkompagnatør af et utal af danske sangere".

"Tenoren Mathias Hedegaard, der har markeret sig som en af sin generations førende fortolkere af danske sange og romancer og desuden er en efterspurgt koncertsolist, får et nyt gennembrud med denne cd. Hans stemme passer fint til denne cyklus, og han forstår at give samtlige 24 sange en både dramatisk og lyrisk farvning - vel at mærke uden at blive for patetisk i sit tonefald ... Med Tove Lønskovs kongeniale klaverspil, må man konstatere, at Hedegaard og Lønskov er et ideelt match til Winterreise".

"Den tyske tenorstjerne sætter denne gang en følsom tackling ind på Schuberts Winterreise, og selv om hans kraftfulde stemme egentlig fylder for meget i Schuberts svævende tonepoesi, er resultatet værd at lytte til. For Kaufmann viser igen sin uovertrufne evne til at vække følelser".

"Der er tale om en nuanceret, kontrolleret og, ikke mindst, dynamisk bredspektret fortolkning ... til Deutschs forbilledligt enkle og følsomt registrerende akkompagnement ... Stemmen er med andre ord ingen lille eller lyrisk tenor ... Kaufmann lader den dundre flere gange undervejs på et Schubertalbum, der dermed får usædvanlig slagstyrke. Men han balancerer de omhyggeligt udvalgte kanonsalutter med sin særegne og sarte, næsten åndelette blandingsklang ... Det er dygtigt gjort. Helt enormt dygtigt, endda".

"Det er en helt anden klang, man oplever hos den engelske tenor Mark Padmore. Samlet i et poleret fokuspunkt og med et sødligt svæv ... Padmores kultiverede og lakblanke stemme har en tendens til at skærme af. Det er lige før, den lægger en membran mellem øret og følelserne. Kompetent akkompagneret af Brendeleleven Paul Lewis".

"Matthias Goerne har kulde i sin velvoksne mandestemme, så man gyser ... En lidt for voldsom ihærdighed efter at tage Schuberts vinterverden med storm viser sig nu og da. Mens sangene lader pendulet svinge frem og tilbage mellem bundfrossen ensomhed og kåd forårslængsel, mellem gravkammerstemning og farve i kinderne, får Goerne også etableret en personlighed, som man ikke kan lade være med at følge".

"Han [Güra] graver dybt i hovedpersonens mentale deroute, varierer mageløst udtryk og klangfarver, går fra hvisken til råb, fra ren og skær skønsang til tonløs sorgfuldhed ... Berner er overalt en vidunderlig billedmager, han rammer præcist den tilsyneladende optimisme i Die Post ... Sådan kan man blive ved med at trække illuminerende detaljer frem fra disse 24 sange, som nu har fået en ny referenceindspilning. Og hjerte, hvad vil du mere?".

Padmores naturligt sfæriskskønne stemme foredrager disse sange med en oprigtig og overbevisende dramatisk sensibilitet, ... adræthed, indlevelse og strubegribende nærvær. Den knugende atmosfære hjælpes godt på vej af Lewis' præcise og udtryksfulde spil, der emmer af nuancer og klangfarve".

"Johan Reuter ... har en utrolig nuanceret og bredspektret baryton at fortælle med. Og selvom hans grundleje som operasanger nok er kraftigere end mange liedsangeres, så lægger han sig behageligt og intenst i klangbilledet ... Copenhagen String Quartet ... spiller nænsomt og velklingende sammen. Der er ikke en finger at sætte på de smukke strygerklange ... Jeg savner noget fandenivoldsk styrke ind imellem ... men de holder sig inden for rammen".

"Der Bariton Johan Reuter hat die Winterreise schon einmal original eingesungen, allerdings in seiner dänischen Muttersprache. Nu folgt eine Version mit Streichquartett, arrangiert von Richard Krug, dem Cellisten des (note bene hervorragend) begleitenden Copenhagen String Quartet ... Die Winterreise gestaltet er von seinem vokalen Naturell her also mit nachdrücklicher Maskulinität, versteht es aber auch, Piano-Nuancen sinnfällig zu platzieren. Seine Interpretation wirkt in jedem Moment sinnfällig, die Diktion ist vorbildlich".

"If there were such a thing as a standard reading of Winterreise, this would be it. In a time when too many singers sound as if they wish they were Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, that is welcome, but there is too little sense of a progression from the mere misery of rejection to the acceptance of utter solitude; it needs more edge, more explicit pain".

'Besværet' er måske ikke det rigtige ord, men Jonas Kaufmanns mørke og mandigt-hæse stemme fungerer bedst for fuld udblæsning. Når volumen og udtryk skal skrues ned i liedstørrelse, bliver klangen klemt ... På trods af indvendingerne ... en cd, man bør høre".

"Taken from the collected recording of Schubert songs that Fischer-Dieskau made with Gerald Moore in the early 1970s, this DG version ... is arguably the finest of his readings on record. At this period the voice was still at its freshest, yet the singer had deepened and intensified his understanding of this greatest of song-cycles to a degree where his finely detailed and thoughtful interpretation sounded totally spontaneous".

"For the first 19 of the 24 songs they steer a moderate course ... But for the last four songs they take expression to extremes, with devastating effect ... There are so many ways of interpreting this, Schubert's greatest work, that it would be silly to say this was the most impressive ... But this one, wonderfully recorded and always beautiful despite its violence, is among the great accounts".

"Throughout the cycle Appl offers engaging interiority and a powerful sense of concentration, often reacting to Müller's words with vivid imagination and quicksilver mood changes ... Baillieu's playing through the whole cycle is unfailingly imaginative, and he brings lovely colours out of his instrument. But there are problems with Appl's voice: its dynamic range is limited and it sounds squeezed at higher volumes ... The baritone builds a convincing - often compelling - performance within these limitations, and the cycle is suited to his approach".

He is in many respects an excellent singer, but Winterreise presents a range of challenges not all of which entirely suit his voice and his apporach ...

Jollity, though, is not what Winterreise is about, and the German baritone's temperament and timbre find a near-ideal match in the great cycle ... given the quiet intensity, the almost meditative sense of concentration Goerne achieves throughout the cycle ... And the series as a whole? ... Never less than artfully sung ... these dozen discs undoubtedly make the Schubertian world a richer place".

Goerne is such an intelligent singer that ... reach the listener to this disc as lived and suffered through both with pain and with the lively imagination of the poet ... Goerne has recorded Winterreise twice before ... This is also a very fine interpretation, but the warmth of Brendel's accompaniment [in 2003] gives the cycle a consoling quality that the new disc does not have".
