Anna Lucia Richter se estrena en el XXVII Ciclo de Lied del CNDM con una excelente selección de lieder de Mahler, Wolf y Schubert.

As part of the Konzerthaus’ Mittagsmusik (Midday Music) series, young soprano Anna Lucia Richter teamed up this week with one of the greatest living song accompanists, Gerold Huber, to present an extraordinarily varied matinée of songs in the Schubertsaal.

Soprano Anna Lucia Richter sings Schubert and Wolf with tonal beauty and eloquent intensity, sensitively and unerringly accompanied by Gerold Huber.

The penultimate concert in a three-year project to record the complete songs of Hugo Wolf, this Oxford Lieder Festival concert’s programme was based around settings of Goethe.

Centered around the later, lesser-known composers of art song, tonight’s programme started with a first half of melancholy Hugo Wolf Lieder. Both Schubert and Schumann wrote settings of Goethe’s unhappy Harfenspieler, but evidently Wolf was unsatisfied, as, on principle, he avoided setting texts which he thought had been successfully treated before.
