Johannes Brahms' Die schöne Magelone, Op. 33, is unique in his oeuvre. It is not quite a song cycle, for the 15 poems set by Brahms, out of 18 by poet Ludwig Tieck, include three different narrators. The poems come from a novella, itself based on an old French romance about a princess, Magelone, whose intended, Count Peter, strays from her during his travels and falls in love with a Muslim girl named Sulima. Brahms' songs thus resemble settings of songs from Shakespeare's plays. They take a little bit of context to make sense fully, and they're often presented with connecting narration (available online in German for this recording, but apparently not in English). Someone might profitably mount or record a semi-dramatic presentation of the work; it would not be the long-hoped-for Brahms opera, but it would be something of the sort. All this explains why the work is rarely performed, but all this said, the songs are quite listenable in themselves, and they interestingly show Brahms in a rare mode where his primary model was Schubert, not Beethoven. Often a song begins with Schubertian rhythmic chords, but then departs into freer dramatic structures that help hold the whole cycle together; the accompaniment by Gerold Huber is especially sensitive here. Sample the finale, where the two lovers are reunited, for an early example of Brahms' wonderful lyric gift. Baritone Christian Gerhaher sounds quite a bit like Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, one of the few others to have recorded the cycle, but his interpretation is gentler and more romantically reflective. Recommended, and likely to occasion new thinking on how to approach these unusual Brahms songs.
