Matthias Goerne reunites with GRAMMY® Award-winning pianist Daniil Trifonov for a one-night-only performance.
With Trifonov described as ‘a knockout’ (The Washington Post) and Goerne a ‘commanding vocalist’ (The New York Times), these titans of the classical world present an unforgettable rendition of Schubert’s masterpiece, Winterreise.
Composed in the final year of Schubert’s life, this haunting song cycle ventures through a profoundly emotional winter landscape and draws listeners through expressive vocals intertwined with nuanced pianism.
Transforming simple elements – a crow, a frozen stream – into powerful metaphors for human experience, Schubert’s expressive genius is on full display in this performance that’ll highlight Elisabeth Murdoch Hall’s reputation of being a vessel for unforgettable storytelling.
