Schubert from mezzo Bethan Langford, tenor Robert Murray and violinist Cecilia Zilliacus.

Performances from the 2014 Oxford Lieder Festival, including Schubert from mezzo-soprano Bethan Langford, tenor Robert Murray, violinist Ceclia Zilliacus and pianist Bengt Forsberg.

This week's Lunchtime Concerts come from the 2014 Oxford Lieder Festival: The Schubert Project. This was a mammoth two-week series which included all of Schubert's songs alongside some of his best-loved piano music, curated by pianist Sholto Kynoch.

Today's programme includes highlights from three concerts, including performances by mezzo-soprano Bethan Langford, tenor Robert Murray, violinist Cecilia Zilliacus and pianists Bengt Forsberg and Sholto Kynoch. The tour-de-force Fantasy in C major for violin and piano sits alongside Schubert settings of poems by Matthäus von Collin and Ludwig Heinrich Christoph Hölty.
