Trifonov and Goerne: Swan Songs | Adelaide Festival
Adelaide
From $55.00
Two generation-defining artists turn to a composer close to their heart – Franz Schubert – for a very special two-concert Adelaide Festival residency.
Russian pianist Daniil Trifonov, described by The Times as “without question the most astounding young pianist of our age”, has made a spectacular ascent of the classical domain, quickly conquering the world’s greatest concert stages and festivals. German baritone Matthias Goerne is a revered interpreter of opera and song. Trained with two 20th century greats, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Goerne has set a new benchmark with his captivating interpretations and the rare beauty of his voice.
For Swan Songs at the Town Hall, Schubert’s final masterpieces will be on glittering display. The beloved song cycle Schwanengesang, written at the very end of his short life, is full of the masterful lyricism and storytelling that make his music so beloved to this day. It is paired with Trifonov’s performance of Schubert’s 21st and final Piano Sonata, a work written just weeks before his death that showcases a lifetime of transcendent spirit and musical inspiration.
This concert is an unmissable opportunity to glimpse the unparalleled musical partnership of these renowned artists together in two different yet sublime forms.
Trifonov & Goerne will also be performing Die schöne Müllerin, Sun 16 Mar at UKARIA.
