The French countertenor Philippe Jaroussky, a superstar in the baroque repertoire, offers a program of lieder by Schubert and Schumann, who never in their lives heard a grown man navigate in the higher registers they associated exclusively with women and children. Even for listeners today, the experiment may take some adjustment. —M.G.
