Winterreise is perhaps the greatest song cycle ever written. Franz Schubert set to music the evocative poetry of his contemporary, German lyricist, Wilhelm Muller. It is a heart-rending portrayal of a winter journey through longing and resignation. This unique multimedia volume brings together the achievements of Schubert and Muller with new interpretations by present day musicians, scholars, and a photographer. The volume includes: the complete German text of Wilhelm Muller's twenty-four poems; a new English translation of the poems by Louise McClelland Urban; a foreword by Pulitzer Prize - winning American composer, John Harbison; an introductory essay by renowned Schubert scholar, Susan Youens; ninety-two black and white photographs of a winter's journey by Katrin Talbot; and a compact-disc recording of the ""Winterreise"" song cycle performed by baritone Paul Rowe and pianist, Martha Fischer.

John Harbison is institute professor of music at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Katrin Talbot is an award-winning photographer and violist who lives in Madison, Wisconsin. Susan Youens is professor of musicology at the University of Notre Dame. Louise McClelland Urban is professor emerita of voice at the University of Maryland, College Park, Paul Rowe, baritone, and Martha Fischer, pianist, are professors of music at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
