"Paris Mirages" offers a glimpse into the vibrant and transformative era of Fin-de-Siècle Paris, where composers like Debussy, Franck, Fauré, and Ravel redefined the boundaries of musical expression. This period, marked by unparalleled artistic innovation, bridged the late Romantic era with the dawn of modernism, weaving new textures, harmonies, and cultural influences into the fabric of music. |

A rare live performance of “Winterreise” at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall on January 28th, 2025 at 8:00 PM will be held in honor of the 150th anniversary of Schubert’s birth.
'Winterreise' is a powerful experience, as it invites all of us to enter Schubert's world during his final years. At the tender age of thirty, he was struggling to come to terms with his own mortality, yet still holding on to the exuberance of his youth. Set to Wilhelm Müller's evocative poems, Schubert’s masterpiece is a tribute to his unwavering dedication. For the Austrian bass Reinhard Mayr and American-Ukrainian pianist Irena Portenko it is an honor and a delight to bring this profound musical journey to the Well Recital Hall around the time of Schubert’s birthday. We can’t wait to join forces to transport our listeners to a point where “Winterreise’s” intense emotions lie in wait. |
