Description
The motif of the wanderer is a central theme of German Romanticism in the 19th century. In this song recital, based on the award-winning album "Fremde Heimat" (Alien Home), the wanderer goes through various stages: foreign countries and languages meet him on his journey, until a longing for home and returning home finally creeps in.
The uncompleted musical journey leads from the early Romantic works of Franz Schubert and Robert Schumann through the High Romanticism of Johannes Brahms and Max Bruch to the late Romantic gems of Richard Strauss, Hugo Wolf and Alexander von Zemlinsky. In addition, the programme includes fascinating surprises and rarities by Alma Mahler, Robert Fürstenthal, Peter Warlock, Charles Ives and Albin Fries' setting of Goethe's "Über allen Gipfeln ist Ruh" (Peace Above All Peaks).
Salzburg baritone Rafael Fingerlos and Berlin pianist Marcus Merkel combine musical brilliance with a deep understanding of the nuances of song singing. Look forward to a moving concert evening full of poetry, longing and emotional depth.
