About this work
Einsamkeit is the twelfth song in Winterreise D.911, Schubert’s cycle on poems by Wilhelm Müller, published as Opus 89. The piano’s slow tread accompanies a traveller who passes through busy streets while feeling an even deeper isolation.
Regular opening chords establish an almost impassive distance. In the middle section the texture thickens, accents grow more insistent and the vocal line broadens; the initial motion then returns without offering genuine consolation.
Keep the tread steady and avoid stressing every chord. The voice should carry long phrases beyond bar lines; reserve the greatest intensity for the central section, then gradually withdraw the colour without losing the text’s support.
