Natalie Dessay
Schubert: Lieder
Album · Classical · 2017
For French soprano Natalie Dessay’s first all-German album, she smartly chose to tackle the electrifying and tragic songs of Franz Schubert. She stylishly plays the hits here, giving an engrossing reading of “Erlkönig”, while her “Gretchen am Spinnrade” is agile and lyrical, exhibiting shades of her brilliant opera career.
