Stephan Genz and the pianist Michel Dalberto have gathered around the piano to perform Schubert's Heine settings, known
as his 'Swansong'. This cycle, with its moving accents and mysterious atmosphere, was made up by an editor in want of a
commercial success, posthumously, yet this collection of lieder shows just how skilled Schubert was.
Stephan Genz received his musical training as a member of the Thomanerchor Leipzig, as well as under Hans Joachim
Beyer at the University of Music & Theatre Leipzig. He studied lieder with Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau and Elisabeth
Schwarzkopf. He made his recital debut at the Wigmore Hall in London in 1997.
