Clara.Alma.Wir

In the organizer's words:

An evening with Brigitte Bayer, soprano / Barbara Scherbel, piano / Teresa Rizos, recitation

Music and words interweave to create a haunting portrait of women's lives. At the center is Robert Schumann's moving song cycle Frauenliebe- und Leben - embedded in a polyphonic panorama of music and text.

The first part is dedicated to Clara Schumann:
Composer, pianist, wife, mother: a woman between duty and passion.

In the second part, Alma Mahler-Werfel comes to the fore: muse, artist, lover, seeker.

The Munich soprano Brigitte Bayer and her pianist Barbara Scherbel have developed a special program together with the actress Teresa Rizos, known from stage, film and television, which brings the biographies of both composers to life beyond their work.

An evening about art, love, role models - and about what remains.
