  Song: Mirror of the World

  Thirteen programmes that explore classic song - poetry set to music - as a prism for understanding culture and history

  Presented by Thomas Hampson

  (2) Vienna, Crossroads of Change

  At the turn of the 18th century, Imperial Vienna was the setting for political as well as artistic upheaval. A new yearning for individual expression gave Schubert the impetus to forge poetry and music into a fresh, powerful metaphor for human experience. This was the birth of the Lied, the cornerstone of classic song. We hear Schubert's game-changing song "Gretchen am Spinnrade", plus masterpieces by Mozart, Reichardt, Weber, and Beethoven (WFMT)
