Schubert's Winter Journey - The Anatomy of an Obsession

Suffering from illness, Schubert composed a series of winter trip songs based on the 24 poems of German poet Müller. The poems describe various moods and situations of lovelorn, and together with Schubert's music, it became his later years. The most important works are also the classic works that make people dream about it. Under what experience did Schubert complete this series of works at that time? Perhaps the best tenor who interprets the winter journey in the past 30 years and a doctor of history from Oxford University - Ian. Bostridge has the best answer! As a singer and a historian, Bostridge made a detailed analysis of the winter tour from multiple levels and angles: an analysis of the music itself, and also shared the tips of singing interpretation, and more from history, literature, cultural research, Philosophical perspectives, exploring the meaning behind music and poetry. The winter journey is a journey in itself, and Bostrridge's three decades of exploration is also a journey. This book illustrates why Bostridge's Voyage of Winter is so rich, and will give readers—including music lovers and those interested in history and culture—a whole new understanding of Winterfell. **About the Author Ian.
