On their new GENUIN CD, baritone Florian Götz and the musicians of the Grundmann- Quartett dare to present well-known works in new contexts: they perform Franz Schubert's moving “Winterreise” in a version in which the vocal part is accompanied by English horn and string trio. Exciting chromatic worlds open up, and the moods of the individual songs take on new plasticity and tremendous expressive power. The subtle arrangement by Eduard Wesly, the uniquely personal baritone voice of Florian Götz, and the nuanced tonal mixtures of woodwind and strings all contribute equally to this.
