Schubert's American Dream: Interacitve Workshop 2
Getting to the Heart of the Song

Love, longing, home or loss; the themes of songs - from the romantic tradition to American song - often seem to be similar. But they all have one thing in common: they all begin with a person, whether poet, artist or composer. The workshop with Julian Prégardien explores this origin of a song.

The hands-on workshop is part of the "Schubert's American Dream" theme day, which opens an imaginary window into the composer's world of thought on the first Sunday of the festival. On his deathbed, Franz Schubert dreams himself away to America with the Lederstrumpf novels by James Fenimore Cooper - in search of freedom, individual self-determination and that better world that he repeatedly sketches musically in his songs.

The ticket also entitles the holder to enter the subsequent collective concert at 16:30, where the ideas developed in this workshop can be experienced.
