The concluding song of Schubert’s Winterreise – “The Hurdy-Gurdy Man” – inspired Matthias Loibner and Nataša Mircović-De Ro to their own interpretation for soprano and hurdy-gurdy. Not only the obvious instrumentation is reflected in it, but also the hopelessness, emptiness, inner strife, and simplification that pervades the whole cycle. Familiar in terms of melody and harmony, some of the harmonic modulations simplify themselves. Nataša Mircović-De Ro’s voice is clearer and more poignant than that of the usual tenor, and time and again a jazzy breeze wafts through the Winterreise ...
This Winterreise is bold and direct, present, and at the same time fragile, an approach to the poetry that could hardly be more honest. Ralf Dombrowski
