Christoph Prégardien, one of the world’s greatest lyric tenors, treats Portland to a rare United States performance! Prégardien’s “plaintive beauty and piercing insight” (The New York Times) make him a preeminent interpreter of German Lieder, art songs for voice and piano inspired by poetry. Internationally renowned as a superb musical storyteller, Prégardien will evoke the love and loss that is at the heart of some of the greatest romantic songs by Beethoven, Schubert, and Schumann. Joined by Artistic Director Gloria Chien on piano, Prégardien will unfurl a magnificent aural poetry experience.
The broadcast will become available Thursday, March 10 at 7:30pm Pacific.
