Overview
Central Europe and the cultural concerns of Romanticism served as the cruciblesfor the creation of the works in this unmissable recital.
Magdalena Kožená andMitsuko Uchida launch their programme with Schumann’s compassionate responseto poems attributed to Mary Queen of Scots before probing the psychologicaldepths of Wolf’s Lieder.
They also explore the lyrical delights of Dvořák’s CzechLove Songs and high-octane vitality of Schoenberg’s eight cabaret songs of 1901.
