Around Schubert

The Nash Ensemble perform music by Schubert and his contemporaries Weber and Spohr.

Live from the Wigmore Hall, London.

Presented by Andrew McGregor.

The Nash Ensemble, Wigmore Hall鈥檚 chamber Ensemble in Residence, places the music of Franz Schubert at the centre of its series 鈥楢round Schubert鈥�, along with works by his contemporaries. This first concert includes two of Schubert鈥檚 chamber music masterpieces, the single string quartet movement in C minor and the buoyant 鈥楾rout鈥� Quintet with double bass. The outstanding French mezzo St茅phanie d鈥橭ustrac sings some of Weber鈥檚 arrangements of Scottish folksongs, along with a Spohr 鈥榬omance鈥� which was a favourite in the Victorian era, and a group of Schubert songs which are favourites for all time.
