Steinbacher, Goerne, Pons — Europe 1900: Wagner, Berg, Strauss

About the Event

Join the musical giants of today as they revisit the giants of another era. Violinist Arabella Steinbacher and baritone Matthias Goerne join Josep Pons and the Orquestra Simfònica del Gran Teatre del Liceu to perform works by the Germanic composers whose reputations bestrode Europe at the turn of the last century.

Barcelona's Palau de la Musica hosts this extraordinary musical odyssey, as Franz Schreker's 'Prelude to a drama' joins iconic works by Berg (Violin Concerto), Wagner (Wotan's Farewell), and Strauss (Death and Transfiguration) to draw a picture of a Europe on the verge of transformational change.
