Works by Schubert, Schoenberg and Brahms: An introduction by Simon Halsey
Claudio Abbado conducts Schubert, Brahms and Schoenberg
In this concert from 2010, Claudio Abbado introduces the audience to some exquisite rarities. These include lieder by Franz Schubert in rarely heard orchestral arrangements, and Johannes Brahms’s cantata Rinaldo which gives us an idea of what an opera by this composer might have sounded like. The vocal soloists are young stars of the classical music scene: Christianne Stotijn and Jonas Kaufmann.
