Schubert: Lieder - Volume 11
Volume 11 of the Bärenreiter Urtext edition of Schubert's lieder seamlessly follows on from the preceding volume with nine songs that were written between August and November 1817. Also included are the complete lieder from 1818 to 1819. for Schubert, these were years of crisis and new beginnings. He left his parental home for good, turned away from established models in his instrumental compositions and went in search of new themes, drawing not only on poets familiar to him, such as Johann Mayrhofer or Aloys Wilhelm Schreiber, but also on authors unknown to him, such as Franz Grillparzer or Johann Petrus Silbert. A significant role in his lied compositions during these years is played by cyclical forms, such as the four songs on hymns by Novalis or the three songs that form an entity based on texts by Mayrhofer, all of which are contained in this volume.
