Description:
[A period-instrument performance of the quartet version, following the conventions of Schubert’s time—bringing the work to its ideal form…!] Alan Buet—now a leading figure in the French early music scene, an experienced stage performer, and a die-hard early music theater artist—has finally released a complete recording of *Winterreise*. And the partners he chose for this project are, surprisingly, a string quartet. And this isn’t just any group—the credits list the Résur du Jour Quartet, a ensemble comprising four highly skilled musicians, all of whom have made a name for themselves as masters of period instruments. Why, as a top-tier early music performer, did he choose to collaborate with a group that values 19th-century instruments and performance practices—rather than a modern-style string quartet or a fortepiano from the early 19th century, the type Schubert himself would have played? According to the liner notes for this album, it was by no means uncommon when performing and recreating music from Schubert’s era to study the scores closely and reconstruct the appropriate instrumental lineup… If reconstructing the instrumental lineup is part of the process of “cooking” the “raw material” of the score, so to speak, then his collaboration with this period-instrument quartet on this album makes perfect sense. Alongside Bue, who sublimates his love for the work into exquisite interpretations through his versatile emotional expression, we hear a continuous stream of delicate nuances delivered by experienced period instrument players. With a sound so compelling that even Schubert himself might nod in approval, this is a “Winterreise” in the early music tradition—clearly distinct from a mere arrangement. Naxos Japan
