The songs that Kathleen Battle chooses for her recital mostly eschew deep drama for sheer lyricism. If you want an album that explores the lyric impulse in Schubert songs, then, this is certainly for you. Battle sings these pieces with unfailingly beautiful vocal production, plus a winning charm and insouciance that border on the–well, girlish, one wants to say, if that isn't entirely politically incorrect. Her voice is a beautiful instrument, no doubt about it.

In the couple of songs clouded by darker emotions, such as "Die junge Nonne" and "Rastlose liebe," she is quite convincing as well, so I don't want to discount her ability to meet Schubert's dramatic challenges. But the overall impression she leaves as a Schubert interpreter is one of subtlety and grace. My favorites are "Liebhaber in allen Gestalten"; "Alinde," with its charming echo effects; "Was bedeutet die Bewegung" (Suleika I); "Ständchen"; and "Die junge Nonne," but it's hard to play favorites when there is so much wonderful music on review.
