Max Reger Blick in die Lieder

Read and write feedback
Lieder with piano by Max Reger are little known even by professional Lieder singers, so some of the Lieder in this CD have never been recorded before. There are discoveries to be made here, both by performers and listeners! The Lieder chosen for this recording are representative of them all. They include works both early and late, with Lieder which were popular and were performed by the composer throughout his life along with neglected settings. The young tenor Andreas Weller, greatly in international demand, here, with his piano accompanist Götz Payer, makes his CD debut as a Lieder singer

Reviews

The Lieder chosen for this recording are representative of the composer's work in this genre, featuring works from both early and late in his career. […] The excellent young tenor Andreas Weller, with his piano accompanist Götz Payer, here makes his convincing CD debut as a Lieder singer.

Allzeit für Reger ein Thema war das Kunstlied. [...] Eine exquisite Auswahl aus der Frühzeit („Bauernregel”, 1892/93) bis ein Jahr vorm Tod („Maria am Rosenstrauch”, Mai 1915) kredenzt der gerade im tenorlyrischen Bereich sehr für sich einnehmende Andreas Weller. Lieder eigener Prägung zwischen Romantik und Jugendstil. Exempel einer musikalischen Prosa. Empfindsames, Skurriles und Witz treten zu Tage. Oft überraschend intim der Klavierpart: Der Pianist Götz Payer erweist sich als hervorragender Interpret.

[...] This release is another chance to hear his direct, melodious, and accessible songs. Reger customarily set poems by his contemporaries, often taking his texts from literary magazines. Released with the title Blick in die Lieder (A Look into the Songs), this is a very good overview of Reger's lieder output, with eight of the Opus 76 songs and 19 other songs from early and late in the composer's life. Four of the 27 songs are recorded here for the first time. Weller is a fine singer; his voice has a weight like Peter Schreier's but with more warmth. [...] These songs are not performed often enough, and they deserve to be heard, and what a delight it is to hear them sung so well here, in Weller's recording debut as a lieder singer. Payer's accompaniment is as excellent as the singing. [...]
