El XXV Ciclo de Lied cerró con un programa representativo en lo que a este repertorio se refiere: Schubert, Schumann, Brahms o Wolf, en una velada que se articuló a través de la alternancia de lieder, dúos, melodramas y poesías recitadas con Thomas Quasthoff, Michael Schade y Florian Boesch.
Two figures occupied Usher Hall’s large stage. More accurately, two performers, as there was also a very focused page turner, removing played pages as though they were explosives. Seated at the piano was Lars Vogt, last seen in this hall during Edinburgh Festival 2012 in a joyous performance of Lutosławski’s Piano Concerto.
