Diana Damrau, Jonas Kaufmann and Helmut Deutsch have once again created a recital of songs about love, with works by Mahler and Strauss. Gustav Mahler’s romantic settings of poems from the collection ‘Des Knaben Wunderhorn’ by Achim von Arnim and Clemens Brentano created a poetic and inspiring portrait of life. Several songs are conceived as dialogues between a man and a woman. Mahler thus draws on the traditional ballad style with his own unique style of interpretation: telling a story and presenting it vividly. Duets and solo songs, performed alternately, speak of desire, love and suffering. Dates and cities can be found in the list below.

“[...]Damrau’s vocal delicacy, [is] able to open a phrase with a delicate crescendo, while often ending them with soft holds as if she were embracing the syllables to the fullest.”
