Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Die Fensterscheibe, Op.107 no.2

In the first of four Schumann recitals, the regular duo partners treat a packed Wigmore Hall to a glorious evening of Lieder. 

Anna Lucia RIchter repasa la historia del lied en el Patio de los Mármoles del Hospital Real de Granada.

In a thoroughly riveting recital at the Concertgebouw, soprano Anna Prohaska probes Ophelia’s psyche through songs from the nineteenth century onwards.

If this first song recital of the season is any indication of the level we can expect at the Konzerthaus, lovers of Lieder are in for a real treat. Christian Gerhaher and Gerold Huber set the bar very high last night in a hefty program including Schumann’s Dichterliebe and a dozen other songs, a set of Fauré, and the world première of a song cycle by Jörg Widmann.
