  • About This Album

    One of the most important works of Schubert’s career, Die schöne Müllerin was one of the first extended song cycles to gain widespread popularity. Here, Sanford Sylvan gives performances that “match the sophisticated naïveté" of the texts, says American Record Guide, and "the calculated folkiness of Schubert's melodies with an artful naturalness of delivery."
