New Generation Artists: James Newby sings Schubert's Die sch枚ne M眉llerin.

The baritone, a recent member of Radio 3's prestigious young artist programme, gave this memorable performance of Schubert's first great song cycle at Wigmore Hall in February this year.
The cycle follows the young miller's journey from cheerful optimism to despair as his girl falls for the charms of a hunter. And, as one reviewer wrote, "The young miller was there before us from the very outset...Newby was the very incarnation of the anxious young lover." Before the Schubert comes Mozart's Piano Sonata in B flat - with its touching Andante cantabile slow movement - played during lockdown by Eric Lu.
