Schubert's Winterreise: Die Wetterfahne & Gefrorne Tränen

Show Notes

In the second episode of our trek through Schubert's Winterreise, we cover Die Wetterfahne and Gefrorne Tränen. The nobility of the journeyman dwindles as he feels himself overcome by feelings of victimization and horror at his own grief. It's a party you're not gonna want to miss! With guest co-host Brian Sikich and guest vocalist Dr. Tyler Reece.
