| | Description: | Schubert: Die Schone Mullerin by Konstantin Krimmel, released 7 July 2023.
This version of Schubert: Die Schone Mullerin comes as a 1xCD. - .. MULLERIN?Baritone Konstantin Krimmel, voted 'Best Newcomer' of the year at the 2023 Oper! Awards in Germany and a member of the eminent Bavarian State Opera company since 2021, presents his third recording for Alpha. In close partnership with pianist Daniel Heide, he places his artistry and his feeling for words at the service of the lied repertory. This is also an opportunity to discover his vision of the work, an unexpectedly contemporary, socio-psychological analysis: 'Die schöne Müllerin is a work that romanticises the development of a mental illness, and shows, unfiltered, how a young person can feel without a tempered emotional world. With all it's dark sides.'"Die schöne Müllerin" on CD presents one of the most beloved song cycles of the Romantic repertoire in an intimate and finely detailed interpretation by baritone Konstantin Krimmel and pianist Daniel Heide. Based on Wilhelm Müller's poems and set to music by Franz Schubert, the cycle follows the emotional journey of a young wanderer, from hopeful infatuation to heartbreak and resignation. Krimmel's nuanced diction and natural narrative instinct illuminate every turn of the story, while Heide's sensitive, transparent piano playing reveals the richness of Schubert's writing, from flowing brook figurations to moments of stark stillness. The recording captures a compelling dialogue between voice and piano, emphasizing the psychological depth and dramatic arc of the work without ever sacrificing lyrical beauty.
Konstantin Krimmel has established himself in recent years as one of the most promising young baritones on the international scene, particularly acclaimed for his recital work and refined Lieder interpretation. He is noted for his clear articulation, expressive coloring, and the ability to shape long musical lines with remarkable control, qualities that make him especially well suited to Schubert's introspective universe. Pianist Daniel Heide is widely respected as a first-rate song accompanist and chamber musician, known for his stylistic awareness and for collaborations with leading singers of his generation. Together, Krimmel and Heide form a finely attuned duo whose balance of dramatic intensity and musical restraint gives this account of "Die schöne Müllerin" a distinctive profile.
