Lied

Small in form, big in impact: the Kunstlied tells stories full of life
In a song recital, the performers become storytellers, bringing the audience very close to the artists. Singer and piano, lyrics and music tell stories of love, loneliness, transformation, and farewell. Great voices demonstrate the undiminished appeal of the small form of the art song. Here, the romantic song giants Schubert and Schumann meet, Bach sings of death as a welcome friend in his cantatas, and the concert hall becomes a stage for powerful composers. Four excursions into the inexhaustible world of song, as captivating today as it was then
