Schubert from mezzo Sarah Walker, pianist Bengt Forsberg and Schubert's Nightingales.

From the 2014 Oxford Lieder Festival, Schubert songs from mezzo-soprano Sarah Walker, pianist Bengt Forsberg and the vocal ensemble Schubert's Nightingales.

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 two concerts, including performances by mezzo-soprano Sarah Walker, soprano Isa Katharina Gericke, baritone Håkan Vramsmo, the vocal ensemble Schubert's Nightingales, and pianists Bengt Forsberg and Sholto Kynoch. Schubert's beautiful choral setting of Psalm 23 follows some of his settings of poems by Karl Gottfried von Leitner.
