Heroic narrations

Fri. 08 December 2017 20:30

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

After his successful debut with the Athens State Orchestra last year, the eminent German conductor Frank Beerman returns to the podium, to submit his personal interpretational approach of an entirely German programme, in which Beethoven’s grandiose “Heroic” Symphony certainly prevails. The sensational and vocally highly demanding Strauss’s songs in Clemence Brendano’s poetry are interpreted by the, also German, coloratura soprano Julia Bauer.
