About This Performance

The art song “dream team” (New York Times) of Mark Padmore and Paul Lewis presents settings of the German Romantic literary giant Heinrich Heine by two of his contemporaries as well as songs by Mahler based on the poetry of Friedrich Rückert. Schumann wrote the miraculous Dichterliebe during his astounding “year of song.” Padmore and Lewis bring these mood portraits to life along with Brahms’s lyrical settings full of tumultuous passion.
