Doppelgänger by Jonas Kaufmann (CD)

“Kaufmann's Schumann and Schubert: unveils the artist’s journey from Romanticism to the stage.”

 

Label Description   The celebrated and visually spectacular stage production of Schubert’s ‘Schwanengesang’, Doppelgänger, from New York, directed by Claus Guth. Jonas Kaufmann’s latest album brings together two of Schumann’s most profound song cycles—Dichterliebe and Kerner-Lieder—performed with exceptional sensitivity and vocal finesse. Accompanied by pianist and long-term collaborator Helmut Deutsch, Kaufmann explores the emotional and poetic nuances of these Romantic masterpieces. These works are complemented by “Doppelgänger”, a strikingly original stage adaptation of Schubert’s Schwanengesang (Swan Songs), directed by Claus Guth. Read more
