Schubert Perspectives #1
Program
SCHUBERT: Selected Piano Sonata; Schwanengesang (Swan Songs)
DACAMERA’s Schubert Perspectives series kicks off with two titans of the classical world.
Matthias Goerne is one of the world’s most versatile and sought-after vocalists, known for his powerful performances and recordings of Schubert. He has appeared on the world’s principal opera stages, including the Metropolitan Opera in New York; the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden; and the Vienna State Opera. Grammy Award-winning pianist Daniil Trifonov has made a spectacular ascent of the classical music world, as a solo artist, champion of the concerto repertoire, and chamber and vocal collaborator. A rare chance to hear Trifonov perform solo and in collaboration with Goerne for the beauty and pathos, drama and despair of the Schwanengesang, or Swan Songs, composed in Schubert’s last year.
“commanding vocalist”
— The New York Times
“without question the most astounding pianist of our age”
— The Times of London
