Joyce DiDonato, Yannick Nézet-Séguin – Schubert: Winterreise: XX. Der Wegweiser ("The Signpost")

"Perhaps one element of a true masterpiece is that it invites itself to be experienced in a new light." Joyce DiDonato reimagines Schubert's dramatic Winterreise from the perspective of the woman in the story, with pianist Yannick Nézet-Séguin. Discover the album: https://w.lnk.to/winterreiseLY

As Nézet-Séguin points out, in this version, one might even say that the piano itself takes on a new role, that of Schubert’s original protagonist witnessing the outcome of his actions, as the woman reads the heart-wrenching words he has left behind. "It really becomes a parallel journey," DiDonato explains, "between the man’s words and emotions, and then the woman’s experience of them."
