Bavarian soprano Christiane Karg made her Wigmore
Hall debut in 2012 with a beautiful song recital which also became her
first release on Wigmore Hall Live; four years on we are excited to
present her second release. A regular guest at the world’s leading opera
houses, singing roles from Musetta (La bohème) to Amor (Orfeo ed Euridice),
she is also revered for her enchanting performances on the concert
platform alongside conductors such as Nikolaus Harnoncourt and Yannick
Nézet-Séguin. Christiane is joined by Malcolm Martineau celebrated as one of his generations greatest accompanists.
This recital explores the unique relationship between the Schumanns and Brahms. After Robert’s death Brahms’s passion for Clara
grew but it was reciprocated only with a protective motherly care. They
remained close friends but Brahms never truly recovered. This programme
presents love in many different guises from the stirring ‘Widmung’, to
the heartfelt ‘Liebst du um Schönheit’ and the love-drunk passion of
‘Meine Liebe ist grün’. (Wigmore Hall)
