Baritone Florian Boesch has an entirely distinctive art song style that is not to all tastes, but it absolutely demands attention, and it has perhaps never been elaborated as successfully as it is in this recording of Schumann's Dichterliebe, Op. 48, and 12 Gedichte von Justinus Kerner, Op. 35. Boesch's way with Dichterliebe is heavily text-centered, almost conversational, seeming ready to shade off into speech at any time. He can apply extreme quietness to a song when he feels it is necessary to bring out its meaning, and his tempos vary from moderate to extremely slow. Sample No. 10, "Hör' ich das Liedchen klingen," and especially No. 13, "Ich hab' im Traum geweinet," where he lets some roughness intrude, for an idea of what one is getting into. Another strong draw here is the presence of the 12 Gedichte, Op. 35, otherwise known as the Zwölf Gedichte von Justinus Kerner, one of the least often performed among Schumann's groups of songs. It is not really a song cycle; the poems of Justinus Kerner (who also essentially discovered botulism) are not related to one another and did not have a specified ordering, although Boesch arranges them to make a cycle-like entity. This doesn't entirely work because they're too varied for that, but in this lies precisely their interest. Accompanist Malcolm Martineau faithfully follows Boesch through his adventurous treatments, and a final attraction is the work of the Linn label's engineers, working in the converted-farmhouse Crear Studio. It captures the intimate approach that is Boesch's hallmark, and one feels that Schumann would have found the ambiance familiar. A major interpretation of the well-worn Dichterliebe.
