Winterreise
Interpretations across two centuries of A Winter's Journey

 


The Inn by Pip Woolf


This website is dedicated to an intriguing project — a cross-media interpretation of Schubert's acclaimed song-cycle, Die Winterreise which sets the poetry of Wilhelm Muller to music.

A live performance of Die Winterreise, by bass singer Robert Lloyd and pianist Julius Drake, inspired artist Pip Woolf to produce a series of twenty-three paintings for each of the songs in the cycle*. 

With Winterreise we invite you to share in a memorable and unique experience: journey with the artist and performers on an exploration of darker human emotions, invoked through a sensitive and intelligent visual and musical interpretation of Schubert's powerful musical motifs and the natural imagery of Muller's deceptively simple lyrics. 

*apart from the first song.
