In more than 600 songs, Franz Schubert brought to musical life virtually all aspects of human emotions. His artistic adventurousness and his gift to focus thoughts “into limited but sharply defined contours,” as Franz Liszt said about his fellow composer, helped make the German word “lied” an untranslatable term. As in previous seasons, the world of Schubert (including selected works by some of his predecessors and contemporaries) will be the focus of an entire week of concerts and workshops at the Pierre Boulez Saal, featuring both veteran and young artists brought together by curator Thomas Hampson.
Information on two additional concerts on Friday, January 20, and Saturday, January 21, at 8pm, as well as full program details for all events will be available in October 2022.
