VINE™ VOICE
Barbara Bonney has a voice that I personally find expressive and ravishingly beautiful. Her technique is flawless, which is one of the reasons why she is so in demand for masterclasses.
She has an intimate understanding of Schubert lieder and, from the point of view of style, I personally cannot fault her. Her singing is expressive but nothing is ever done that undermines the sheer beauty of Schubert's musical line. I have played this recording to friends with no knowledge of classical music and they too have acknowledged the sheer artistry behind the recording.
I do note that others have referred to this as an introduction to Schubert's lieder. Personally, no matter where one starts, I consider it all accessible, although I must confess that many of these pieces are particularly well known (and rightly so).
...and I love this version of "Shepherd on the Rock".

This is a very satisfying collection of popular Schubert songs - perfect for those new to Schubert leider.
This disc is now quite difficult to find, and I would recommend you grab this if you can.

I would endorse what "Mohawk" has said. Most of these songs are well-known and this recital is a good introduction to the delights of Schubert Lieder. There are no extracts from "Schöne Mullerin" or "Winterreise" but this is as it should be because those are songs for the male voice.
At times it seems that Bonney concentrates too much on beauty of tone and line and not enough on characterisation but that is perhaps being a bit picky.
The recital ends with the "Shepherd on the Rock" which is always a delight to hear sung well.
Those interested in another introductory disc of Schubert Lieder could not do better that look at Ian Bostridge's CD on EMI Classics simply entitled "Schubert Lieder". There is a little overlap with Bonney's recital but you really should own both of them!
My initial thought was to give it 5, but if I can only give the Bostridge CD 5 then 4½ would be proper here. As I can't do that Bonney will have to make do with 4. But don't let me put you off buying this disc if you can find it.
