Diana Damrau and Helmut Deutsch will perform a Liederabend at the Schlosstheater Fulda on November 14, with a program featuring works by Robert and Clara Schumann, Joaquín Rodrigo, Enrique Granados, Joaquín Turina, Fernando Obradors and Richard Strauss.
Afterwards, Ms Damrau will join Maestro Nathalie Stutzmann for two concerts on November 21 and 22 at the Tonhalle Zürich. The program opens with the overture from Wagner’s Tannhäuser followed by a selection of orchestral songs by Duparc and Glière’s Andante from the Concerto in F minor for coloratura soprano. The audience will be treated to Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 5 at the end of the evening.
“[...]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.”
– Operawire
