Mark Padmore and Mitsuko Uchida - Schubert - Schwanengesang CD

Mark: Padmore and Mitsuko Uchida - Schubert - Schwanengesang CD

With a lifetime's experience, the tenor Mark Padmore, and the pianist Mitsuko Uchida present two of the ultimate works of the lieder repertoire. Mitsuko's last album won the 2022 Piano Gramophone Award, the long-celebrated pianist is one of the world's leading interpreters of Schubert, alongside Beethoven's only song cycle, the ideal coupling.

Mark Padmore CBE is world-renowned for his lieder. The duo have been performing this repertoire together on tour in Japan

"Of all the great piano soloists turned accompanists in this music, [Uchida] remains the most interesting. Padmore meanwhile made this a vocal journey of existential discovery alongside a textbook lesson in dynamics and the treatment of words." – The Guardian

"Two Schubert masters... It's difficult to avoid superlatives when writing about Mitsuko Uchida and Mark Padmore. Especially when it comes to Schubert." – The New York Times.
