Thou singest ye carol

German countertenor Andreas Scholl is not only known for his beautiful voice, but also for his daring song selections, and this is fully reflected in his choice to sing German romantic and pre-romantic songs.

Brahms probably would’ve been shocked and Schubert would’ve laughed out loud at the idea that his music would ever be sung by a counter tenor. So isn’t it great that Scholl decided to just do it. For him it’s about the songs, about the lyrics and letting the notes lead him. But there is more than that. Scholl’s performances are more than just recitals; he prefers to adapt his repertoire to fit his unusual voice.
