“The Free Breath” Soirée

“The Free Breath” Soirée program presents a rich panorama of European art song, where poetry and music merge into a single expressive voice. From the radiant lyricism of E. Toldrà to the dramatic depth of F. Schubert’s Lieder, the program explores themes of nature, longing, and human emotion. R. Schumann and C. Loewe bring narrative intensity and theatrical storytelling, while the French mélodie of G. Fauré and H. Duparc concludes the recital with refined elegance and sensual color. Across languages and cultures, this recital reveals the voice as the most intimate instrument — carried by breath, poetry, and imagination.
