About the Event

Andrè Schuen is renowned for his exceptional talent in both opera and song interpretation within the classical music realm. Teaming up with his piano partner, Daniel Heide, their performance centers on the remarkable works of Johannes Brahms and Gustav Mahler. This emotionally charged programme presents Brahms' late composition, the "Four Serious Songs," where he confronts the inevitable reality of death amidst the loss of loved ones and his own impending end. In the face of such tribulations, Brahms finds solace in the profound power of love, which emerges as the only force that surpasses all. Mahler's songs, rooted in texts from "Des Knaben Wunderhorn," resonate with a similar sentiment as he skillfully delves into the realm of folk music, extracting its deepest truths and wisdom. Schuen and Heide skillfully navigate through these masterpieces, creating an enthralling and captivating experience for their audience.
