James Gilchrist’s latest Linn recording encompasses three of the greatest examples of the song cycle genre, Robert Schumann’s Liederkreis, op. 24 and op. 39, and Dichterliebe, op. 48. James Gilchrist is sought after for operatic roles, ensemble performances and as a respected, and frequent, lieder recitalist. His musical partner Anna Tilbrook is one of Britain's most exciting pianists, with a considerable reputation in song recitals and chamber music. She made her debut at Wigmore Hall in 1999 and has since become a regular performer at Europe’s major concert halls and festivals.
