THIS IS A PAST EVENT
Florian Boesch, baritone
Roger Vignoles, piano
Pre-concert Talk 2:00 PM by Dr. Kurt-Alexander Zeller
A song cycle of searing emotional power, Schubert’s Winterreise (Winter Journey) is “twenty-four numbingly beautiful songs on texts by Wilhelm Müller” ( The New Yorker).
Austrian baritone Florian Boesch “embarked on a Winterreise of such angst and anger that even Schubert himself might have been alarmed. What was so exciting was his lashing out against fate, his refusal to accept comfort without cynicism – and that Vignoles and Boesch seemed, inevitably, to be walking a tightrope of musical risk” (The Times, London).
