Title: Is this a joke ?
Review: Speaking about Hans Zender's composed interpretation of Franz Schubert's "Winterreise", the booklet names it a "highly original approach". Actually, when I listen to that, I can only see a poor, vain and boring accoustic illustration of an intemporal masterwork THAT DOESN'T NEED to be illustrated ! "Die Winterreise" is one of the most complete works in the lied's history and I still can't undersand how Christoph Prégardien (who offered us a fantastic interpretation of the "genuine" Winterreise with A. Steier/pianoforte) could agree to get involved into this destructive approach of Schubert. In fact, I find all this really sad because it shows, in a way, the poorness and lack of creativity of a composer compelled to use (and abuse) of other composers' great works to bring new ideas. That's a waste of time, talent and money. And it's not even a joke; all that stuff is very serious, pseudo-intellectual and supposed to be deep.
