ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

As part of the cooperation between the Lied Akademie of the @HeidelbergerFruehling, the Hampsong Foundation, and the Pierre Boulez Saal, young singers and pianists are given the opportunity to participate in multiple working periods in Heidelberg and Berlin over the course of several months or years. During the Schubert Week at the Pierre Boulez Saal in Berlin, they present their work with @thomashampson in two public workshops and a concluding performance.

SCHUBERT WEEK 2023

Franz Schubert, declared the English musicologist George Grove in 1883 in fervently Romantic tones, only had to “read the poem, and the appropriate tune, married to immortal verse (a marriage, in his case, truly made in heaven), rushed into his mind, and to the end of his pen.” In a creative life spanning less than 20 years, Schubert wrote over 600 songs—a musical treasure trove that is as diverse as it is inexhaustible. The Pierre Boulez Saal’s Schubert Week, curated by Thomas Hampson, once again unites a group of veteran and up-and-coming artists to explore a selection of these works, together with compositions by Schubert’s contemporaries.

Two public workshops under the direction of Thomas Hampson offer rare insights into the training and development of young singers.

In Cooperation with the Lied Academy of Heidelberger Frühling Liedzentrum and the Hampsong Foundation.
