Their Artistic Director, Steven Walter, devised this tantalising programme that will be performed at both festivals, blending poets’ differing perspectives of life and love through a reading of Thomas Mann’s novella 'Tonio Kröger', interspersed with Schumann’s 'Dichterliebe' and Elena Langer’s 'Landscape for Three People'. Our Emerging Artist slot includes songs by the Bonn-born Romantic composer Johanna Kinkel. Generously supported by Bernard & Sarah Taylor.
