Schumann: Liederkreis, Op.24, Kerner-Lieder Op.35 - Matthias Goerne

In the miraculous year of 1840, which Schumann began in despair, forcibly separated from Clara by her father, he composed nearly 150 lieder, including the two outstanding cycles presented here, based respectively on poems by the great Heine (the Liederkreis Op.24) and by Justinus Kerner (the twelve Kernerlieder Op.35). In the hands of two such outstanding artists as Matthias Goerne and Leif Ove Andsnes these two masterpieces invite us, performers and listeners alike, to share a state of transcendence and heightened consciousness.
