With Brittany Smith (soprano), Alex Gabriel (piano)
Songs of Love and Solitude brings together two deeply expressive song cycles performed by Cape Town Opera star Brittany Smith, a Fleur du Cap winner, and Alex Gabriel, acclaimed collaborative pianist and CEO of Cape Town Opera. Schumann’s Dichterliebe - rarely sung by a soprano - reveals new colours in this female-voiced interpretation, while Barber’s Hermit Songs sets the wry, tender reflections of medieval monks to music. A captivating hour of intimacy, wit, longing and beautifully crafted storytelling.
Met Brittany Smith (soprano), Alex Gabriel (klavier)
“Songs of Love and Solitude”, uitgevoer deur die Cape Town Opera-ster en Fleur du Cap-wenner, Brittany Smith, en bekroonde begeleier en uitvoerende hoof van Cape Town Opera, Alex Gabriel, bring twee diep emosionele liedersiklusse byeen. Robert Schumann se “Dichterliebe”, wat selde deur ’n sopraan gesing word, kry nuwe kleure in hierdie vertolking deur ’n vrou, terwyl Samuel Barber se “Hermit Songs” die skerp, teer besinnings van Middeleeuse monnike skilder. ’n Meesleurende uur van intimiteit, spitsvondigheid, verlange en meesterlik vertelde verhale.
