Ian Bostridge: Schubert’s Winterreise seminar-“Kirill Gerstein invites“ hosted @eislerlab HfM Eisler

Ian Bostridge: Schubert’s Winterreise. Ian discusses: What did, and could, Schubert’s song cycle mean in 1827/8; what can it mean for us now? And why does it have such a compelling appeal? ------ Schubert’s Winterreise served as a springboard for a discussion covering a wide variety of topics from the practical aspects of performance to the continued relevance of romantic masterpieces, classical and pop music, the necessity of a broad cultural context in education, and the impact of history and its perception on today’s society. ------ KIRILL GERSTEIN INVITES - a weekly online forum with leading thinkers hosted by #eislerlab at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin
