Songs by Schubert's friends and contemporaries
Graham Johnson (piano)
CDJ33051/3
These generously filled discs were included as the ‘bonus’ discs in the forty-disc boxed set The Complete Songs by Franz Schubert CDS44201/40. They are now available as a set of three and are presented with comprehensive commentaries by Graham Johnson which firmly establish the composers—many of them barely known today—in the context of that flowering of musical creativity at the zenith of which later generations have placed Schubert himself.
